Thomas Handy Sazerac Rye
Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Straight Rye Whiskey is a prestigious member of Buffalo Trace’s Antique Collection, named after the 19th-century New Orleans bartender Thomas Handy who popularized rye in the Sazerac cocktail—this cask-strength rye is bottled uncut and unfiltered, typically around 125–130 proof after roughly 6 years of aging in new charred white oak .
On the nose, it offers lush toffee, fig cake, and candied fruit tempered by bold peppercorn, clove, and mint aromas—powerful yet harmonious. The palate is full-bodied and spicy with waves of cinnamon, allspice, menthol-herb heat, dark chocolate, and orange peel, unfolding into complex rye spice and subtle oak richness. The finish is long, warming, and sweetly spiced with lingering anise, nutmeg, and a touch of caramel—often described as “dangerously crushable” despite its intensity
