Old Fitzgerald 10 Year Old Bottled-in-Bond Spring 2023

Each spring and fall, a new edition to the Old Fitzgerald Bottled-in-Bond series is released. Inspired by an original 1950's Old Fitzgerald diamond decanter, the packaging and series honor both the history of the Old Fitzgerald brand and the historic Bottled-in-Bond designation. The Old Fitzgerald line is well-known for its distilling pedigree, as the brand was first registered in 1884 and was eventually sold to "Pappy" Van Winkle during Prohibition. In 1999, Heaven Hill bought the brand and began distilling it at Bernheim Distillery in Louisville, KY. Proof: 100 Proof TASTING NOTES Color: Bright burnished copper Nose: Brown sugar and molasses; light baking spices with orange peel Palate: Very soft and gentle on the palate; notes of butterscotch and subtle oak with baking spices, particularly cloves Finish: Long and warm with some tannins and a peppery tingle; finally, a hint of barrel char at the very end
