Seems the forgotten single barrel from Buffalo Trace. Hancock’s President’s Reserve was introduced in 1991, which is a year after Buffalo Trace expanded its lineup for Rock Hill Farms. As mentioned, Hancock’s President’s Reserve comes from Buffalo Trace’s mash #2 with a relatively higher rye content than its mash #1 recipe.
This bourbon is named after Hancock Lee who was an early settler near Frankfort, KY. He’s credited as being among the first to distill near the current Buffalo Trace Distillery in 1775. Like this Bourbon, not a whole lot information seems to be known about Lee.
