Old Charter Oak French Oak is a 12-year-old bourbon aged at Buffalo Trace Distillery in barrels made from French oak — the tighter-grained oak long used for the world’s finest wine, lending more subtle flavors and a silkier texture than American oak. Rich and sweet, a tribute to the wood’s journey from forest to barrel to bourbon.

The Old Charter Oak series explores how different oak species shape bourbon. This French Oak expression draws its character from barrels harvested in the forests of France, prized for their fine grain and refined tannin contribution.
