Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Uncut / Unfiltered Straight Rye Whiskey is a powerhouse expression and a cornerstone of the famed Sazerac Antique Collection. Produced by Buffalo Trace Distillery, this barrel-proof rye is bottled straight from the cask, delivering bold flavor, natural intensity, and uncompromising character.
The nose is vibrant and expressive, opening with cracked black pepper, fresh mint, clove, and citrus peel, layered over notes of caramel and seasoned oak. On the palate, it’s explosive yet precise—waves of rye spice, cinnamon, anise, and baking spice collide with rich toffee, dark honey, and hints of dried fruit. The high proof amplifies every note while maintaining remarkable balance. The finish is long, warming, and complex, lingering with spice, oak, and a touch of sweetness.
Released in extremely limited quantities each year, Thomas H. Handy is revered by collectors and rye enthusiasts alike for its raw power and depth. It’s a must-have for serious whiskey lovers and best enjoyed slowly to fully appreciate its evolving complexity.
