Buffalo Trace Invites Fans to Craft their Perfect Bourbon

Craft Your Perfect Bourbon

Buffalo Trace Distillery Launches Interactive Website

            Franklin Co, Frankfort, Ky. (Oct. 28, 2015) – There’s no denying that bourbon has become more popular these days, but many drinkers are new to the brown spirit and confused about how bourbon whiskey is made and the subtle nuances of recipes, aging, proof and warehousing.  Buffalo Trace Distillery aims to change that with a new interactive website, www.yourperfectbourbon.com.

In just three minutes, users can design a bourbon perfect for their own taste. Once online, visitors will select their own bourbon recipe and learn how the grains such as corn, wheat, rye and barley influence the taste. Adding more rye results in a more “daringly spicy” bourbon, for example.  Visitors will then see animated graphics explaining how the distillation process works, before witnessing just what 55 seconds of charring can do to an oak barrel.  Then users on this bourbon journey get to select which level in the aging warehouse they want their barrel to age, and learn how different elevations within a warehouse ultimately impact the taste of each bourbon.  Aging and proof round out the end of the experience, before each custom designed bourbon is complete. Then a description of each participant’s perfect bourbon is unveiled, based on their individual preferences. While each custom designed bourbon is unique, the website will also identify actual brands from the Buffalo Trace portfolio that taste most similar in profile, helping fans learn what they might like the next time they crave a sip of bourbon whiskey.

“I hope people will really enjoy this fun and interactive experience, while learning how bourbon is made,” said Kris Comstock, bourbon marketing director. “It takes years to craft a great bourbon, but it only takes minutes to design your favorite online.”

The popular Tibetan Buddhist monks, who visited Frankfort in 2013, are returning to Kentucky’s capital Nov. 2-6. The monks – refugees living at Tashi Kyil monastery in India – will be cooking traditional Tibetan food for an interfaith gathering at Church of the Ascension on Washington Street; creating an intricate World Peace sand painting over four days at 305 St. Clair Street; teaching yoga classes at Frankfort Yoga Studio, and art classes for children at The Light Clinic; and participating in other cultural and interfaith programs throughout the week.

The Tibetan Dinner will be 6 to 8 p.m. Monday, Nov. 2. Tickets are $15 and may be purchased at Poor Richard’s Books on Broadway, The Light Clinic in the McClure Building, or at the door. A Tibetan cooking class at the Episcopal Church, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., will precede the dinner. For more information, call 502-330-1201.
