A living tribute to the father of the Bottled-in-Bond Act — E.H. Taylor Single Barrel is crafted in the tradition of Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr., the legendary distiller who set the standard for American bourbon quality in the 1800s. Bottled directly from hand-selected individual barrels, uncut and unfiltered at over 125 proof, and aged in century-old warehouses constructed under Taylor's own watchful eye — this is bourbon made the way it was before Prohibition, uncompromising and powerful.
Tasting Notes

- Palate: Smooth yet powerful — caramel, dark fruit, charred oak, warm spice, and a deep complexity that reflects decades of warehouse aging
- Finish: Long, bold, and deeply satisfying with lingering oak, spice, and a warming barrel-proof intensity
Frequently Asked Questions
