Traveller Whiskey is a blend of American whiskies crafted at the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Franklin County, Kentucky. The brand was co-founded by American singer-songwriter, Chris Stapleton.
The first celebrity-themed whiskey associated with Buffalo Trace, Traveller Whiskey offers a unique flavor profile that will appeal to the masses, but leaves more discerning consumers wondering what actually makes up the blend.
Though it works as a neat sipper (best at room temperature), the whiskey easily lends itself to a range of cocktails, particularly for the price point.

House Review
Nose:
Light and sweet on the nose. Vanilla wafers, honey, graham crackers, peach.
Taste:
Graham cracker, orange peel, cinnamon, apple.
Finish:
Apple character continues onto the finish, joined by char and a prick of ethanol.
Overall:
A sweet, simple and pleasant bourbon, for the most part. It's noticeably young but overall enjoyable. It's a letdown for Buffalo Trace distillate but is pretty much what you expect from a celebrity release.
