Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection Standard Stave Dry Time is a Bourbon from Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. This 2013 release was distilled in 1998 from Buffalo Trace Rye Bourbon Mash Bill #1 and aged for fifteen years in barrels crafted from oak staves dried naturally in the open air for six months - the distillery's standard seasoning specification.
The Experimental Collection is Buffalo Trace's long-running program of one-off whiskeys exploring unique mash bills, woods, barrel toasts, and aging conditions, with more than 2,000 experimental barrels aging in the distillery's warehouses. The Stave Drying Time experiment paired two 15-year bourbons - one from barrels with the distillery's standard six-month stave seasoning and one with thirteen months of open-air drying - to isolate how much longer wood seasoning changes the finished bourbon, with the 14th numbered release of the Experimental Collection landing in November 2013.
On the nose, it shows balanced sweetness with oak. The palate brings well-rounded caramel, vanilla, and oak character, and the finish carries a clean, balanced close.
The standard six-month stave drying produced a well-rounded benchmark expression against which the extended-drying companion could be measured. It drinks well neat or over a single large cube.
