Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection Spirits Distilled From Grain and Hops is an American Whiskey from Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. This 2025 release is the 26th Experimental Collection bottling, built on a blended rye bourbon recipe that incorporates Saaz Noble hops and Zythos hops infused into the raw distillate for 30 minutes before the spirit is distilled and laid down in charred white oak casks.
The Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection launched in 2006 as the distillery's ongoing program of small-scale bourbon and whiskey experiments. Over 30,000 experimental barrels age in Buffalo Trace's warehouses, each crafted with unique variations in mash bill, wood type, barrel toasting, char level, and aging conditions. Selected experiments are bottled and released in limited quantities in 375ml "lab-style" bottles, each labeled with detailed production notes - a direct window into how master distillers Harlen Wheatley and the BT team push the boundaries of American whiskey-making.
The hops bring floral and bitter elements not typically found in American whiskey - Saaz is a traditional Czechoslovakian Noble variety used in Bohemian pilsners, while Zythos is an American hop blend with tropical and herbal notes. Because of the added hops, the TTB classification falls outside of standard whiskey labeling and Buffalo Trace markets it as "spirits distilled from grain and hops" rather than as bourbon.
Aged 11 years 7 months in charred white oak before bottling at 90 proof, this release was made available in limited quantities at the Buffalo Trace gift shop starting in late January 2025. It drinks well neat or over a single large cube.
