Sazerac 18 Year Old - BTAC 2025 Limited Edition

Sazerac 18 Year Old (BTAC 2025 Limited Edition) is one of the most in-demand annual releases in American whiskey—an ultra-mature Kentucky Straight Rye that forms part of the famous Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC). Bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV), it’s prized for its refined, layered profile and the rarity that comes from long ageing in Kentucky warehouses.

For the 2025 release, this Sazerac Rye was aged for 18 years and 5 months and distilled using the same low-rye mash bill as the standard Sazerac Rye. Remarkably, Buffalo Trace reports that around 92% of the original spirit was lost to evaporation (the “angel’s share”) during maturation—one of the key reasons mature rye of this age is so scarce, and why BTAC releases are so collectible.
