Old Fitzgerald Bottled in Bond 19 year old (Fall 2022), 50%

Price: 240 Issue: Spring 2023 Reviewer: Ted Simmons Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey

The nuanced nose delivers pecan shells, dried herbs, spearmint, green tea, honey, hay, tobacco, wicker, and hints of orange peel. It is soft and delicate considering the proof. The palate is rustic and rich, with pistachio, banana taffy, peanut butter crackers, roast coffee, and bitter chocolate. A lengthy finish brings brown sugar, cinnamon, chocolate, and caramel. The oldest Old Fitz to date, this shows clear maturity and significant oak influence
