The latest and oldest release and Bottled In Bond is a wheated dram in a gorgeous bottle that earns a place on your top shelf.

Heaven Hill Distillers is unique. They are one of the oldest and largest Bourbon distillers in the world, they have the second largest standing inventory of aging Bourbon, and they have grown to become the seventh largest supplier of Spirits in the US. BUT… they are still family owned. In fact, they are the only family-owned production house left in Kentucky. God bless the Shapira family! The Spirit brands owned and controlled by Heaven Hill includes Evan Williams, Elijah Craig, their namesake Heaven Hill, and many dozens more.

Heaven Hill has just released the forth biannual release of it’s "Bottled In Bond" series. This latest entry is the oldest — and we’d argue the best — one of the group so far. It’s called the Fall 2019 Release Old Fitzgerald Bottled In Bond and it’s a full fifteen years old. The barrels were laid down in 2004 and bottled (in that stunning decanter) in December 2019. It’s simply glorious and we are not the first ones to draw favorable comparisons to the grand-daddy of super-premium Bourbons, Pappy Van Winkle — also a wheated dram.

Smartass corner:
To qualify as "Bottled In Bond" a Spirit must be the product one distiller during one distilling season, be aged for a minimum of four years in a federally bonded warehouse, and be bottled at a minimum of 100 proof (50% ABV), among other regulations.

Speaking of breeding winner horses, two of Pinhook’s co-founders have horseracing in their DNA. Jamie Hill and Mike McMahon continue the tradition of their families as third-generation horsemen, owning a bloodstock agency and a thoroughbred racing company. Applying that knowledge to Whiskey just made sense.

Sure, Kentucky gets all the press when it comes to Bourbon. And with good reason—nearly 95% of it is produced there. But Bourbon can be made anywhere as long as it's within the United States. Just ask states with budding distilleries like Illinois and New York.
Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.
Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
Bourbon matures quicker than Scotch due to higher temperatures in American warehouses.
Bourbons have very prominent notes of vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
