History
Elmer T. Lee 'Commemorative' Bourbon is a unique spirit that is produced as a commemorative bottling honoring Elmer T. Lee, a legendary figure in the whiskey industry. Made at the renowned Buffalo Trace Distillery, which has roots dating back to 1775, this distillery has changed names multiple times, reflecting its rich heritage. Originally known as the George T. Stagg Distillery and previously owned by the Sazerac Company, it is today celebrated as one of the most award-winning distilleries in America, with seven "Distillery of the Year" awards to its name. Buffalo Trace, family-owned and situated in Franklin County, Kentucky, encompasses over 130 acres of operational distilling facilities. It has been home to iconic Master Distillers like Albert B. Blanton and E.H. Taylor. This exquisite bourbon is crafted from Mash Bill #1, using a blend of the finest corn, rye, and malted barley, and is aged to perfection in new oak barrels. Consistently rated among the best bourbons worldwide, it offers a rich taste and exceptional value. Notably, proceeds from this limited edition bottling benefit the Frankfort VFW Post 4075, honoring Lee's legacy as a dedicated member until his passing in 2013.
