Buffalo Trace is to release the next whiskey in its Colonel E H Taylor Jr collection.

The Seasoned Wood offering is a wheat Bourbon that has been aged for "well over a decade", according to the company. Buffalo Trace used different types of wood to age the whiskey, including barrel staves that were immersed in enzyme-rich water and staves seasoned outside for six or 12 months.

This Seasoned Wood Bourbon is the eighth whiskey in the collection. 

Earlier this month, Buffalo Trace's parent company, Sazerac, refused to be drawn on reports that it has purchased UK distribution company Hi-Spirits.
