Description

128.1 proof. Batch 6. 2017. Colonel E.H. Taylor Barrel Proof — the 2017 annual release, the sixth batch in the series and one of three Taylor Barrel Proof batches in the current Wooden Cork collection alongside Batch 5 (2016, 127.5 proof) and Batch 11 (2022, 129.0 proof).

Batch 6 at 128.1 proof sits in the middle of the three in-stock EHT Barrel Proof expressions by proof — above Batch 5 (127.5) and below Batch 11 (129.0). The three batches span six years of the program (2016–2022), documenting the Barrel Proof program across more than half its first decade of releases.
