1849 Bourbon 750ml

Bottle size

This label was introduced in the early 1970s and is named 1849 after the year in which W.L. Weller & Sons was founded. This is the Heaven Hill version, distilled at Bernheim and bottled in 2012. Walking through a rainfall of autumn leaves dropped like dander from naked oak trees is a picture perfect capture of a change of season. Old Fitzgerald 1849 bourbon mesmerizes your tastes just as the fall of leaves your eyes, and is equally as beautiful. The aroma opens in a tale of autumn on the soul – warm hues of clovers melting into spiced cinnamon cider and toffee candies soaked in vanilla essence and pepper.

About the brand

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.

Extraordinary nose. Recognizable Paradise Slope smell nutty however more extravagant. Excessively smooth peanuts and dull chocolate. Would be an incredible consistently sipper if just it were really accessible. This is a more full thicker form of Evan Williams white mark. 6/13/17
