Old Zach is our fifth BuffTurkey release and boasts a flavor profile all its own. Where earlier barrels were described as Dusty Funk, Balanced, Cherry Bomb, and Fruity, Old Zach is Fiery. This barrel delivers the highest proof of the five at 131 proof.
Bundle Exclusivity:
The 16-year BuffTurkey expression (Pick #157) represents The Prime Barrel’s highest proof “BuffTurkey” selection, the only one to show a rise in proof. Due to limited bottle yield and exceptional quality, we’ve made this barrel a bundle exclusive. The only way to secure a bottle is through this two-bottle package.
This creates a unique collecting opportunity: acquire both expressions or miss the 16-year BuffTurkey entirely.
The Prime Barrel Selection Story
Sometimes the best barrels are accidental finds. When we visited Cox’s Creek Distilling last year to pick this BuffTurkey barrel, we asked what else they have. That led us to the 136-proof Double Oak Barton gem. We first found a hazmat barrel, but it had fewer than 20 bottles left. This barrel had just as much flavor, a few fewer proof points, and enough bottles to go around.
