Bourbon Buyers Club Exclusive
There are few distilleries that garner as much attention as Buffalo Trace at the restaurant. It’s the number one requested bourbon at our bar by far and has been since open.
Over the last few years, I’ve been trying to purchase my second barrel but getting a Nicholas Barrel Reserve at Buffalo Trace is only slightly easier than getting my own barrel of Pappy. The distillery is one of the oldest distilleries in Kentucky and is the place where Pappy Van Winkle, Blanton’s, George T. Stagg, E.H. Taylor, Elmer T. Lee & Weller are made (just to name a few). Private tours are almost non existent and landing a visit to select your own barrel happen about as often as a New York Giant victory.
Buffalo Trace lives up to the hype though. I am blown away that they can sell a bourbon that is 8 years old at this quality level for such a fair price. Bo Beckman (private barrel director) and I tasted through 22 barrels that were specially set aside for me. I’m so excited by what I picked out, I know you’re going to love it.
This Exclusively picked by Nicholas in a trip down to the distillery in Kentucky- this is the only private label Buffalo Trace single barrel sold in New Jersey. On the palate it is sweet with notes of brown sugar and fall spice that give way to oak, toffee, and dark fruit. The finish is long and smooth with serious depth.
*As a little bit of a thank you to us for our patience, I got a 750ml price for 1L of Bourbon. I’m passing those savings down to you.*

DO NOT compare this Buffalo Trace in any way to the regular bottling. This bourbon is worlds apart.

This is a very rare single barrel Bourbon Whiskey to make its way to Jersey. Maple syrup, butterscotch, caramel & brown sugar with a palate of caramel apple, roasted almond, ripe banana and graham crackers. This one has a full mouthfeel with a nice creamy middle. The finish here lingers with just the right amount of burn. This was born on 2/3/2017 and bottled at 102 Proof. This is a great bottle of Whiskey.
Rich and creamy notes of toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, and fresh baked Bundt cake immediately flood the sense’s as soon as you pop this one open. Bottled at 100-Proof, you get a little bit of heat on the front palate followed by rich oak, leather and freshly baked bread. As it starts to open, you get some sweeter, creamy vanilla notes that cream in as well as campfire s’mores and a dash of pepper. The finish is long, and a bit spicy which leaves a memorable aftertaste and leaves you wanting more.
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.

The area has also been isolated from the rest of Spain for generations, which has kept the wine prices far lower than wines of this quality would be anywhere else in the world. That’s why, despite having the Torres family name on the bottle and the consistent huge press (including the Gold Medal & Best in Show at the 2023 Mundus Vini International Wine Awards in Germany), these wines can still be scooped up for under $20/bottle. It’s like the Sancerre pricing of yesteryear.
