On October 20, 2016 – I toured the Buffalo Trace distillery in Franfurt, KY. This distillery has been operational contiuously since 1786 and is the home of Buffalo Trace, Blanton’s and Eagle Rare to name a few. Here is a photo of Eagle Rare and Blanton’s being bottled in the small batch and single barrel bottling building while I was there.
