Description
Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey — Three-Bottle Collection
Featuring the Legendary Hercules 💙
Some raffle entries feature a special dog. This one features a legend.
This beautiful collection includes three bottles of Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, one of Kentucky’s most recognizable and beloved bourbons, produced at the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky.
Bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV), Buffalo Trace is known for being exceptionally smooth and approachable while still offering plenty of character. The nose opens with inviting aromas of vanilla, caramel and brown sugar, followed by hints of spice. On the palate, expect toffee, dark fruit, warm vanilla and oak, finishing smooth and balanced.
Crafted from Buffalo Trace’s traditional low-rye mash bill of corn, rye and malted barley, this is a classic Kentucky bourbon that can be enjoyed neat, over ice or in a favorite bourbon cocktail.
With three bottles included, this is a wonderful collection to enjoy, share, or tuck away for another day.
💙 And then there was Hercules…
There are rescue dogs you remember forever, and then there are dogs who become part of the very history of a rescue.
Hercules was one of those dogs.
He was the most magnificent, gigantic Dogue de Bordeaux we had ever rescued. But when he came to us, there was very little magnificent about his condition. Hercules arrived a walking skeleton, terribly neglected and in incredibly rough shape.
Yet somehow, despite everything that had happened to him, that enormous body still carried an equally enormous heart.
Hercules went to stay with Travis, and there he finally discovered what his life should have been all along. He was loved, cared for and treasured — and he thrived for the few precious years he had left.
And what a presence he was.
Hercules was larger than life in every possible way. He was unforgettable, deeply loved, and he left a mark on the people who knew him that time has never erased.
Years later, his name still means something here.
Hercules made a forever mark on Dog Ranch Rescue, and it feels especially fitting that this raffle entry carries the image and name of a dog who truly became one of our legends.
Legends never really leave us. They live on in the stories we tell, the hearts they changed, and every dog we continue to save in their honor. 💙
Every raffle ticket purchased helps Dog Ranch Rescue continue doing exactly what was once done for Hercules — taking the dog who has been forgotten, neglected or discarded and showing them that their life still matters.
Three bottles of classic Kentucky bourbon. One unforgettable giant. One very special tribute to Hercules.
RESCUE. REHAB. REHOME. REPEAT. 🐾
