Buffalo Trace is a distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, which was founded in 1857 as the O.F.C. Distillery. It has had a number of names over the years and produces a wide range of whiskey. Today it belongs to the Sazerac Company from New Orleans.
Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.
The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.
