Belmont 18 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon

Historic bottling from the Belmont Distillery, Kentucky. Built in 1881, Belmont was closed after Prohibition was enforced in 1919. In 1933 it was purchased along with Bernheim, demolished, and all distilling operations moved to the current Bernheim Distillery that has produced Old Fitzgerald and I.W. Harper among other brands over the years. As such, this is an incredibly rare chance to try aged pre-Prohibition Bourbon from a legendary distillery. 'This whiskey was mashed in little tubs, and distilled on the old fashioned hand made sour mash plan....reduced with distilled water.'
