    I like learning the history about any distillery, especially Buffalo Trace. I had wondered how long Harlen has been there. I was supprised he took the job, being the state everything was in. But I'm glad he did.

      Harlan Wheatley is horrible human being inside and out. Ask most of his employees, especially current and former managers and supervisors. Awful, awful man. It will be a great day when he’s no longer running things at Buffalo Trace.

    Hi Harlan, I love your videos. Discovered them about two weeks ago trying to watch them all there’s plenty. They’re fantastic very informative. I love to visit your distillery. I run a grocery store in Canton Michigan And of course we know all of us guys wanna have all the allocated products from your distillery working hard with our salesman. Just wanna let you know that amazing products there thank you. Would love to visit your distillery someday.

    I recently visited the Bardstown Distilling Co. and on our way home we stopped at two different liquor stores. It was sad that they were selling bottles of Weller up to $2400 a bottle.

      Luckily for me a friend in Colorado set me on to Buffalo Trace several years ago. Prior to that I largely drank Beam. Wild Turkey when I was younger. I’m 67 and retired..no longer drink at home, but we have a very nice restaurant/Bar up the road, just outside the gate of Sequoia National Park. Right on the River. And they pour me the Buffalo Trace. GREAT Bourbon. I’m originally from Southern Ohio, and most of my kin from Southern Indiana and I must admit I didn’t know what the Buffalo Trace was until I looked into it. Good Stuff glad to see a nice American success story! Funny Deliverance story. Cheers!

    In my very very humble opinion, I believe that BUFFALO TRACE is dropping the ball by not making more of the Oak Project which I believe was/is a huge contribution to the production of Whiskey in general and Bourbon in particular in the United States. The implications of this research in establishing the character of the product are huge. Sadly, I remember my tour of Buffalo Trace made no mention of this work with the single witness being a 2X3 framed poster around the corner and out of sight from the general tasting area. I am left to conclude that this work may easily follow Single Barrel Bourbon into the cloudy past. Shame on you.
