The bottle every Palm Beach cabinet has a spot reserved for is getting a version that skips the water. Buffalo Trace is marking the 40th anniversary of Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel with a cask-strength release, the first time this particular bourbon has been bottled at barrel proof rather than cut down. For a label built on scarcity, that's the rare kind of news: the same bourbon, just less diluted, and forty years to earn the occasion.

With reporting from Robb Report.
