Spossed to be good juice, Its Buffalo Trace that is sent to VA for one more distillation then aged in VA.

I thought it was aged Eagle Rare juice sent to VA to age some more, I could be wrong. Is Eagle Rare juice and Buffalo Trace juice the same mash bill?

According to breaking bourbon it’s Buffalo Trace.

As for as taste goes I’m congested all to hell so all I got was “cinnamon”.

Yes, both Mash Bill #1

From Breaking Bourbon.

quote:

Like the other bourbons produced from the A. Smith Bowman Distillery, John J. Bowman Single Barrel carries with it a unique background. If the rumors that this is made of distillate from Buffalo Trace’s mashbill #1 are true, it would share the same undertones as the E.H Taylor line and Eagle Rare. It also presents a great lesson in just how much aging factors into the taste of a bourbon. In theory these distant cousins should be closer in flavor than they are. Instead the additional distillation and standalone aging in Virginia produces a bourbon that doesn’t exactly scream Buffalo Trace either. The end result isn’t one that really distinguishes itself from other single barrels on the market, but nevertheless still offers an enjoyable sip.

Been busy shopping around New Orleans the last couple of days.

This OF 1920 is pretty good. Got to taste it and a few others today at Martin's. May go back and grab their store pick Russell's Single Barrel.

Besides the OF 1920, I haven't had any success finding the other bottles anywhere in Houston. So stocking up while in town for the holidays.

Thanks. Never actually saw it on the shelf in Houston. I'm either going to the wrong places or I don't spend enough to know about it.
