THOMAS H. HANDY SAZERAC RYE 2025 RELEASE- 750ML

Known for a bold flavor profile that’s characterized by baking spices, cinnamon, and often raisin, Thomas H. Handy tends to be the most consistent release within the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. The aroma of this year’s release starts with heavy baking spices up front, with sharp cinnamon stick being the most apparent. The spice is met with golden raisin and crème brûlée sweetness, all of which is wrapped in an ever-present heat. A surge of rye spice on the palate gives way to peppery oak, raisin, and cane sugar, which are underscored by rye spice and delivered in a bold, rich format. The finish brings tapering baking spices as expected, with charred oak, vanilla custard, and seared mint emerging on the backend. It concludes with a long lasting heat.
