Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Cured Oak is a rare and exceptional limited-edition bourbon that reflects the unwavering standards of its legendary namesake. Known for pioneering innovation in the 1800s, Taylor insisted on only the highest-quality ingredients and aging methods—and this release embodies that legacy to the fullest. Crafted using oak staves cured for an extraordinary 13 months—more than double the industry standard—this bourbon draws deep, rich flavor from the very heart of the wood.
Aged in Warehouse C, the historic structure built by Colonel Taylor himself in 1881, this small-batch expression reveals a remarkable complexity developed through extended wood exposure and patient aging. The result is a bourbon with exceptional depth, refined character, and a flavor profile as bold and uncompromising as the Colonel.
Tasting Notes:
-
Nose: Deep, luxurious aromas of toasted oak, dark vanilla, caramelized sugar, and rich baking spices, accented by hints of dried fruit and leather.
-
Palate: Full-bodied and smooth, delivering layers of dark toffee, cinnamon, seasoned oak, and tobacco, rounded out by subtle maple and stone fruit sweetness.
-
Finish: Long and elegant, with lingering warmth and notes of charred oak, spice, and a touch of dark chocolate.
Why It’s Special:
Cured Oak stands as a tribute to Colonel Taylor’s relentless pursuit of perfection. The extended stave-curing process unlocks flavors that typical barrels never reach, while aging in Warehouse C ensures an ideal environment for maturation. As a limited-edition release, it offers a rare opportunity to taste the kind of craftsmanship that revolutionized bourbon over a century ago.
Perfect Pairing:
Enjoy neat or with a few drops of water to let the complex flavors unfold. Best paired with dark chocolate, spiced desserts, or smoked meats to complement its bold oak-forward character.
A Testament to Tradition:
Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Cured Oak is a bold expression of bourbon-making at its finest—meticulously crafted, thoughtfully aged, and deeply rooted in heritage. A must-have for collectors, connoisseurs, and anyone who believes great whiskey begins with great wood.
