- The Single Oak Project is the most extensive bourbon experiment ever undertaken-an industry first. Starting in 2006, Buffalo Trace Distillery set out to research the impact of seven important factors in the bourbon-making process. Learn from Mark Brown, Buffalo Trace CEO, what makes the winning formula, and when to expect the next Single Oak release.

Mark Brown is a really fun storyteller, thanks for making these.
Very interesting! Thanks for the education…love the BT products!
Lets see some more content, guys! We're always excited to see what Buffalo Trace has in store!
Very interesting! I love how intricate the process is!
Setting here watching this having a shot or two of my first bottle of buffalo trace. Best whiskey I've ever had.
This is a great video. I hope to visit the distillery one day. As I don't live in the USA this is a bucket list item. Hope to grab some buffalo trace this weekend to share with family and friends.
Cheers to you!
Lol, good luck coming to the US to find it. You won't find it here!
Should you ever make it over, kindly let me know and I'll assist as much as possible!
@@Vortex1988 You're mistaken; the distillery always has their flagship bourbon.
So I hear you all fired the people keeping BT bourbon away from the market? I really hope I can one day buy some of your whiskey. Because it’s really hard to find where I live.
I would love to get that for my father as a welcome home gift.
This experiment ended in 2015.
If you get a chance to visit BT it’s well worth the trip. I was able to pick up a bottle of Blanton’s and EH Taylor from the gift shop. While I’ll never get to sample the Antique (or other limited bottling) collection it’s a great spot to visit if you’re a bourbon aficionado.
Thanks for the kind words, Wayde!
What a surprise, Buffalo Trace releasing another bourbon I'm NEVER gonna be able to find, smell, taste, or even see. Well done.
I agree. It’s beyond frustrating. I had EH Taylor single barrel at a bar in an airport. It was the best whiskey I’ve ever had. Been trying to find it for 3 years ever since. How can their be none? Somehow people are scooping them up to resell on secondary. Greed ruins everything. I’ve given up on Buffalo trace
@@brentons857 i had eh taylor single barrel and was completely disappointed by it
Clueless whiner... These were already released years ago and were available at the distillery; like most rubes you miss the point of long-term discovery that they're willing to commit to.
Lol
@@brentons857 Enjoy the opportunity whenever you have it but try to keep in mind that there are a couple layers between the producers and you, distributors and retailers. Ask whatever store owner if they put the highly desired items out on the shelf at normal retail prices; very, very few do these days.
Man I hope to stumble across this someday!!
Long gone from stores and the distillery, I'm afraid to say, but in a few years we should be able to acquire the children of #80!
Didn’t they recently double the size of their operation? Maybe there is a chance in 20 years.
They're still in the process of doing so but, hopefully, it won't be quite that long a wait.
That is super cool.
Hello from Butte Montana.
I drank a few bottles of this single oak project, very good. I still have an unopened bottle from barrel 72...not sure what I am saving it for.
My local ABC will never have a bottle of this "bigfoot riding a unicorn". Benchmark 8 & Ancient Age are the only BT products EVER in stock.
The Single Oak Project began in 1999, culminating in #80/192 being selected as the best in 2015; this was an experimental run, released in 375ml bottles for ~$45 per.
As for your store, sadly it's up to their distributor as to what's made available and at what cost; too many distributors will force a store to buy tons of lesser quality products in order to get a little of the "good stuff".
@@e4tango347 my ABC is state run, which means MSRPricing, but the tradeoff is a poorer selection.
Also, I know that Sazerac/BT don't distribute to states evenly...some states are identified as "test" markets, so they get more product first.
Most BT products, except for the bottom shelf like Benchmark 8, are VERY RARE.
@@normlang1994 It's a shame but keep in mind that it's the distributors who dictate which store gets what, not the distiller. And state run distribution often means the good stuff is syphoned off beforehand. 😒
Ancient Age and Benchmark are great mixers though
Thanks BT! Can’t wait to never see this on the shelf for $5000.

Mark! Where can I buy one of those wool quarter zip jackets you’re wearing?!
I’m sure it is good, but there is a ton of other stuff that is just as good or better that I can actually find, and actually afford.
I live in VA and we have State stores. They do this thing now where they release a bunch of allocated stuff at random times at random stores. It is kinda of a dumb way to do it, but it gives you the chance to get some hard to find stuff at MSRP. Anyway, I’ve managed to get there for a few of these at different stores in the last few weeks. The store just puts everything they have in the drop on the counter, and each person can by one bottle of what they have out there. I was one of the first in one of the stores and they had a few bottles of Blantons, Eagle Rare, and regular BT. Those are good, but they also had Woodford Reserve Batch Proof 118.4 that no one was touching. I bought that. The other time I got there the next day and all the Buffalo Trace was long gone, but the Elijah Craig C922 was untouched. Noobs.
@@brianirwin6047 @Croaker 47 It should always be up to your individual palates as to what tastes good and what doesn't. However, Buffalo Trace doesn't have to market their wares; store owners will like they would any other popular product.
We need more videos
Good video
Thank you, Frank!
Like Buffalo trace isn’t already difficult enough to get…
Did you watch the video or just see the name and feel the need to vent your frustration?
Another bottle that will be marked up 1000% 😃
Not the distillery's fault; in a three tier system they sell their products at wholesale to distributors who then mark them up, sometimes ridiculous amounts. Blame the store owners, the secondary market and fools with more money than sense.
@@e4tango347 Agreed. Just venting my frustration
@@e4tango347 the distillery is not producing enough to meet the demand so the distillery should correct that.
@@tonysr1983 "vending"? Freudian slip? 😏 But seriously, I get it, just well past that stage personally.
@@BigBadJerryRogers Apparently you've managed to remain ignorant of the fact that Buffalo Trace Distillery has been undergoing an over billion dollar expansion for a few years now; everything takes time in the bourbon world but ultimately will be worth the wait.
What's this going to cost me, about half my rent payment if I can even find it?
Of course it would be part of the vintage series that will be impossible to get unless you are part of the wealthy 1%! Thanks again buffalo Trace!
Not their responsibility to make sure your local store stocks it at a reasonable price; they sell at wholesale, distributors and then stores mark them up.
Hello, your wine bottle is so familiar... was it purchased from China? We are a factory specializing in the production of liquor bottles, so I am very sensitive to this. If your company needs new bottles, you can contact me and I will design some solutions for you
God bless Elmer!
Only the extremely rich will have a touch of this. Not for peasants
This peasant bought a few variations back in the day.
@@e4tango347 nice
Releases 10 bottles bought up by speculators for 55k apiece and no one will ever see or taste outside of photos
There were actually multiple 375ml bottles of the 192 variations created by this experiment, sold for $45 per at the distillery and stores back in the day.
Another gimmick, another dollar.
Grats to them on working their market.
You do not understand bourbon.
@@e4tango347 yeah, maybe not but the idea of where on a hill a tree grows will determine the bourbon's flavor sounds like bunk.
But, please, pay the massive premium on a few runs and let us know! 😁
@@aludrenknight1687 How to say that you didn't watch (and actually listen to) the video without saying it... Talk to any arborist and they'll confirm that tree growth/rings are not uniform and are different depending on those variables.
@@aludrenknight1687 ask a wine somm about where things are grown and how it affects the final product. Trees would be no different.
@@marcwhiskey but we're not drinking the tree.
Oh look! Another bourbon no one will be able to buy!
(sigh) Oh look! Another hack crying...
@@e4tango347 Shill harder
@@e4tango347 Oh look! A Buffalo Trace representative trying desperately to save face!
@@Vortex1988 Representative? No. Supporter? Yes. Informed? Yes. Butthurt Would-be Bourbon Buyer? No.
