Description

Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Straight Rye Whiskey 2024 Release is a limited annual expression from the renowned Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Bottled uncut and unfiltered at full barrel strength, this Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey showcases the bold, spice-forward character that defines the Thomas H. Handy legacy.

Aged for approximately six years and three months in new charred oak barrels, the 2024 edition is bottled at 127.2 proof (63.6% ABV), allowing the whiskey to retain its natural intensity, structure, and depth straight from the barrel. Named after the New Orleans bartender credited with popularizing rye whiskey in the original Sazerac cocktail, this release represents traditional American rye whiskey in its most authentic form.

Produced in limited quantities each fall, Thomas H. Handy remains one of the most sought-after rye whiskeys among collectors and enthusiasts, valued for its annual vintage variation and powerful barrel-proof presentation.

About Buffalo Trace Distillery

Thomas H. Handy is the high-proof, high-energy member of the legendary Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC). Named after the New Orleans bartender who first used rye whiskey in the Sazerac cocktail, this expression is a tribute to the raw power of American rye. Within the Antique Collection, Handy is unique: it is consistently the youngest bottle (typically around 6 years) and always bottled at barrel proof, uncut and unfiltered. While its peers like Sazerac 18 focus on refined elegance, Handy is built for bold intensity and "cocktail-pinnacle" potential.
