Taylor Warehouse C.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eColonel E.H. Taylor Warehouse C is an annual limited Bottled-in-Bond expression from Buffalo Trace, named for and aged in Warehouse C — a historic rickhouse that dates to the Taylor era of the distillery. It is a different product from the E.H. Taylor Warehouse C Tornado Surviving release: the Tornado Surviving is a one-time bottling of barrels exposed to the 2006 tornado that struck the warehouse; the standard Warehouse C BiB is a recurring annual release from regularly aged Warehouse C barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAt 100 proof and 10 years, the 2021 Warehouse C BiB follows the Bottled-in-Bond standard — single season, single distillery, federally bonded warehouse, exactly 100 proof. It is the most structured and regulated designation in American whiskey, established by the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897 — legislation that Colonel E.H. Taylor himself championed. Drinking a Taylor BiB release is in some sense completing a historical circle.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep amber with golden highlights from 10 years in Warehouse C.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel, vanilla, and seasoned oak — the characteristic Buffalo Trace profile at BiB maturity.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth and balanced — toffee, light spice, and a warm grain sweetness from a decade in the barrel.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and warm — caramel and gentle oak spice fading into a clean, dry close.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buffalo Trace, Frankfort, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Bottled-in-Bond\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 years\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 (50% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWarehouse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warehouse C\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRelease:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2021\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/colonel-e-h-taylor\"\u003eColonel E.H.
