Taylor Jr. line of bourbons, named after Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr., a historical figure in the bourbon industry known for his contributions to bourbon production methods and the industry’s regulation.

This particular expression, the 18 Year Marriage, is highly sought after by bourbon enthusiasts due to its aging process. It’s a blend of whiskies aged for a minimum of 18 years in specially selected oak barrels, resulting in a complex and rich flavor profile.

Like other bourbons under the Colonel E.H. Taylor brand, the 18 Year Marriage Straight Bourbon is produced using traditional methods and is bottled in bond, meaning it meets strict criteria set by the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, including being distilled at a single distillery, aged in a federally bonded warehouse for at least four years, and bottled at 100 proof (50% alcohol by volume).

Due to its limited production and aging process, Colonel E.H. Taylor 18 Year Marriage Straight Bourbon Whiskey is often in high demand among collectors and connoisseurs of fine bourbon.
