1916 Old Hermitage Bourbon Bottled 1927 American Medicinal Spirits Company (Prohibition Bottle) 100 Proof Pint
Bourbon’s vanilla aroma and gentle sweetness is what distinguishes it from most other whisky/whiskey styles. This comes from its aging in flame-charred, virgin American oak barrels.
There is no official period for which bourbon must be matured, although to be labeled as “Straight Bourbon”, it must spend at least two years in barrel. “Straight” is quite distinct from “neat” in this context. After use, Bourbon barrels are often shipped to Scotland where they are used for ageing Scotch whiskies, particularly Single Malts.
A medicinal bottling of bourbon whiskey. Medicinal whiksey was a legal loophole exploited by a select number of distillers who were able to acquire a license to do so, and allowed them to continue bottling their bonded stock as a prescription medication (and in same cases as a weekly baking ration).
This was distilled by the W.A. Gaines company at what is better known as the Old Crow distillery. Old Crow is was one of Kentucky's earliest bourbon brands, created in the 1830's by Scottish immigrant, James C. Crow, Master Distiller at the Old Oscar Pepper distillery. He pioneered the use of scientific methods to ensure continuity in the quality of his whiskey. After his death, Oscar Pepper built a second distillery in honour, naming it Old Crow, with his son James E. Pepper taking over as Master Distiller. The brand and distillery was purchased by Hermitage distillery owners, W.A. Gaines.
