Distillery:

Eagle Rare is a brand of straight Bourbon whiskey first produced in 1975. It is distilled at the famous Buffalo Trace distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. The Sazerac Company of alcoholic beverages acquired the Eagle Rare brand from Seagram in 1989.

There are two single-barrel expressions produced by Eagle Rare, the standard of which is aged for ten years. The Double Rare Very Rare is a 20-year-old bourbon that matures for twice as long as the standard Eagle Rare offering. It is on the market as a collector’s item, bottled in a crystal decanter and adorned with a glass eagle on the top.

Both whiskeys are highly acclaimed – the Eagle Rare in particular is one of the most regular award winners of all Bourbon labels, receiving Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition five times.
