Each bottle is encased in a silver box and crystal decanter adorned with two sculpted crystal glass eagles. Very few bottles were produced, with an individually-numbered letter of authenticity included with each.

Bonus prizes include an Eagle Rare BTAC 17 year, two bottles of Eagle Rare 12 year and six bottles of Eagle Rare 10 year.

Buffalo Trace, based in Frankfort, Kentucky, is owned by the Sazerac Company. The distillery’s Antique Collection (BTAC) is among the most sought-after annual bourbon releases in the US.

Proceeds from the raffle will support the VAREP Central Kentucky Chapter’s work to promote sustainable homeownership, financial literacy and VA loan awareness for military personnel and veterans.
