Old Fitzgerald 100 Proof Bottled in Bond 11 Year Old Bourbon

$449.99

A sumptuously smooth wheated bourbon that engenders all things Kentucky, Old Fitzgerald, or “Old Fitz” as it is affectionately known, is a brand known for its distilling pedigree and minute attention to detail. Acquired by Pappy Van Winkle post Prohibition, who introduced the famous ‘whisper of wheat’ substituting wheat for the more traditional rye in the grain recipe, Old Fitzgerald built itself on a more well-rounded, softer profile than its competitors, an edge that it still possesses today. Having passed hands to Diageo, then Bernheim and now with Heaven Hill in Louisville, Old Fitzgerald continues to produce stunning age-stated wheat bourbons that will dance on the palate and delight your tastebuds.

Description

* Please note, this is the non-vintage 11 year old iteration of Old Fitzgerald Bottled in Bond. Each bottle’s tax strip provides vintage-specific information on when the distillate was produced and bottled. * Matured in new charred American oak barrels and bottled at 100-proof, Old Fitzgerald 100 Proof Bottled in Bond 11 year old Bourbon is premium Kentucky bourbon whiskey with a bold, rich flavor and distinct character beholden to superior craftsmanship and quality. Unique from most other bourbons on the market that utilize a marriage of corn, malted barley, and rye in their mash bill, this exceptional dram switches out the rye for a “whisper of wheat” – or more specifically, 68% corn, 20% wheat, 12% malted barley. The end result is a beautifully charismatic and intricately considered sipping bourbon. Expect a nose with hints of sherried wine, roasted corn, plums, spice, pepper, and vanilla over a palate of cherries, allspice, cinnamon, yellow cake mix, and wild honey.
