The odds are calculated using historical data and are not a guarantee. We want to encourage everyone to visit the Buffalo Trace Distillery even if the bottle they wish for isn’t the odds on favorite for that day.
We haven’t heard an official confirmation on the Single Oak Project being eliminated from Buffalo Trace’s lineup. The Single Oak Project odds are included every Sunday, the only day it has been released this year.
