Bottled-In-Bond Legislation

As with all bottled-in-bond whiskies, this edition adheres to strict regulations: it is the product of a single distillery from one distilling season, aged for a minimum of four years, and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV).

Described as having a bright copper color, the whiskey offers a rich sensory profile. On the nose, notes of leather, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg emerge, while the palate features crème brûlée sweetness complemented by ginger, old leather, and toasted oak. The finish is warm and dry, with hints of pepper and char rounding out the experience.

“Heaven Hill Distillery’s Fall 2024 edition of Old Fitzgerald Bottled-in-Bond Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a masterclass in tradition and craftsmanship,” said Master Distiller Conor O’Driscoll. “At 11 years old, this release celebrates a first-class legacy within the Bottled-in-Bond category. As the 14th release in this prestigious series, it reaffirms Old Fitzgerald’s place at the pinnacle of American whiskey, honoring both its storied past and the continued excellence that Heaven Hill brings to every bottle.”

About Old Fitzgerald 

Originally launched as a luxury brand in the early 20th century, Old Fitzgerald has a storied history that includes being served on high-end rail lines and steamships. Heaven Hill acquired the brand in 1999, preserving its tradition of packaging in ornate decanters. The design of the Fall 2024 release draws inspiration from a 1950s Old Fitzgerald diamond decanter, with the black label featuring the iconic key motif—a nod to the brand’s slogan since the 1940s: “Your key to hospitality.”
