Traveller Full Proof is a blended American whiskey created in collaboration between Grammy-winning country music star Chris Stapleton and Buffalo Trace Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley. It is bottled at 121 proof (60.5% ABV) and built upon the foundation of their original Blend No. 40, which was selected from 50 experimental blends. The whiskey is available nationwide for $39.99. Brand tasting notes highlight vanilla, caramel and oak.
The high proof delivers a remarkably easy sipping experience. More candy corn notes travel from the nose to the tongue and Cow Tales candies follows close behind (both are similar). I’ll be honest, the mouthfeel is thicker than I expected, but there is something a little bit artificial about the way it comes off.
