Mash bill
Full grain split not published.
Buffalo Trace Mash Bill #1 (low-rye) — same corn/rye/malted-barley family as Buffalo Trace Bourbon and Eagle Rare. Exact ratios undisclosed; the Taylor line differentiates on warehouse selection, bottled-in-bond discipline, and vintage packaging more than a unique mash.
