Distilled in 2003 and bottled in 2018, this is one of ten in Heaven Hill’s Old Fitzgerald Bottled-In-Bond series. These bi-annual releases are differentiated by the colour of the labels and arrive with varying age statements. Each handsome antique replica decanter comes with an old style 'tax strip' that discloses when the bourbon was produced and bottled.

They also come labelled 'Bottled in Bond' - hence, they must be aged for over four years instead of just three, thus meeting the standards of the 'Bottled in Bond Act of 1897.' The act also requires that the whiskey be a product of the grain of a single season, made by one distiller at a single distillery, and aged in a federal government-bonded warehouse. The act came as a response to the widespread adulteration in American whiskey around the late 19th century. It was an attempt by the federal government to guarantee the spirit's authenticity. 50% Alc./Vol.
