Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Amaranth "Grain of the Gods" is a bold, limited-edition expression that celebrates the innovative spirit of one of bourbon’s founding fathers. This unique release replaces the traditional rye or wheat in the mashbill with amaranth—an ancient grain once sacred to the Aztecs and revered as the "Grain of the Gods." Known for its rich nutritional and flavor properties, amaranth adds an extraordinary depth and complexity to the bourbon, offering a fresh take on time-honored craftsmanship.
Crafted at Buffalo Trace Distillery and bottled-in-bond at 100 proof, this exceptional bourbon carries forward Colonel Taylor’s commitment to quality and creativity, delivering a whiskey that is as distinctive as the man himself.

Why It’s Special:

Each sip is a testament to his enduring influence on American whiskey and a celebration of tradition reimagined.
