Thomas H Handy Straight Rye Whiskey is masterfully distilled at Buffalo Trace Distillery, Kentucky, and is acclaimed worldwide.
Ancient buffalo carved paths through the wilderness that led American pioneers and explorers to new frontiers. One such trail led to the banks of the Kentucky River where Buffalo Trace Distillery has been making bourbon whiskey the same way for more than 200 years.
