Eagle Rare — from the 2012 Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, one of the five annual BTAC expressions and one of the most consistently celebrated allocations in American whiskey.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEagle Rare 17 is the longest-aged standard BTAC expression — at 17 years and 90 proof, it presents a more restrained, elegantly aged profile compared to the higher-proof BTAC expressions (GTS, WLW, THH, Saz18). Where those expressions lead with power and concentration, ER17 leads with refinement: deep dried fruit, leather, and worn oak from 17 years of Kentucky maturation, presented at a proof that allows the aged character to speak without proof heat. The 2012 vintage is now over a decade from its BTAC release, representing a specific historical snapshot of the ER17 program.\u003c\/p\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\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 years\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90 (45% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2012\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\/rare\"\u003erare spirits collection at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHow does Eagle Rare 17 differ from the other BTAC expressions?\u003c\/strong\u003e ER17 is the only BTAC expression bottled at standard proof (90) rather than cask strength — presenting 17 years of refined aging without proof heat, where GTS, WLW, THH, and Saz18 all range from 130 to 145+ proof.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eIs Eagle Rare 17 Year 2012 still available?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — available now.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does ER17 differ from other BTAC expressions?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"ER17 is the only BTAC expression at standard proof (90) rather than cask strength — refined aging without proof heat, where other BTAC range from 130 to 145+ proof.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is Eagle Rare 17 2012 still available?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes — available now.\"}}]}\u003c\/script\u003e","brand":"Eagle Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49127981383932,"sku":"Scott","price":2374.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/6605\/2348\/files\/eagle-rare-17-year-old-bourbon-whiskey-2012-725.webp?v=1779539009","url":"https:\/\/thebourbonvaulthq.com\/products\/eagle-rare-17-year-old-bourbon-whiskey-2012","provider":"THE BOURBONVAULT HQ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
