Buffalo Bill Cody may be a man of the Wild West; however, the bourbon sporting his name is anything but rugged and will appeal to those looking for a smooth sip.

Wyoming Whiskey has been producing whiskey since July 2009. Each year, the company releases a Wyoming-exclusive bottle that pays tribute to its home state. Composed of just 26 barrels, Buffalo Bill Cody Bourbon is Wyoming through and through, utilizing Wyoming-grown grains and distilled and aged in the “Equality State.”

Buffalo Bill Cody himself was a larger-than-life figure with a storied past. The company states that “Buffalo Bill Cody was a fearless frontiersman, a decorated war hero, and a master showman whose charisma captivated audiences around the world. From his early days as a Pony Express rider and Union soldier to earning the Medal of Honor and founding the town of Cody, Wyoming, his life was a true epic of the American West. At the height of his fame, Buffalo Bill was one of the most recognized Americans on the planet, bringing the spirit of the frontier to global stages through his iconic Wild West show.”

While Buffalo Bill Cody may serve as a reminder of the Wild West, this bourbon made in his honor leans more classic. Fresh oak and leather are instantly noticeable on the nose and are followed by pleasing classic scents, including vanilla and cinnamon syrup. The bourbon peaks in the palate with a focus on spiced caramel, chewy oak, and cinnamon cake before a short, dry, and spice-driven finish comes into focus. While a Wyoming exclusive, this bottle will appeal most to those who celebrate the history of the state and how far Wyoming Whiskey has come as a distillery over the years.
