Old Forester will release the 21st iteration of its limited-edition, vintage-dated Birthday Bourbon on Sept. 2 in celebration of founder George Garvin Brown’s birthday. This year marks the 151st year of the company he began in 1870.

The 2021 Birthday Bourbon will be bottled at 104 proof and is made up of 119 barrels, aged 12 years, and barreled on April 16, 2009. After showing exceptionally unique character during a tasting panel, the 12-year-old barrels were chosen specifically for this year’s Birthday Bourbon.

The fourth edition in the WhistlePig boss hog releases, The Black Prince.

The Armagnac-aged rye whiskey named Best in Show after the blind tasting at 2017's San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Black Prince is a 4th edition of the boss hog. It is the first Rye Whiskey ever finished in Armagnac casks, straight from France. Expect bold, powerful spice on the palate with notes of apricot, clove, and cinnamon. Named Best in Show at the San Francisco Worlds Spirits Competition.

This bourbon whiskey is bottled at nearly barrel proof. Just a splash of Kentucky limestone water is added after a decade of aging. Rich, yet smooth, this bourbon takes a back seat to none. A sweet vanilla nose with caramel, pecan and oak wood. Smooth, mellow flavor consisting of robust wheat, cherries and oak. Features a long, smoky wheat finish with hints of fruit, spice and oak tannins.

Bottled in 2016, Whoop and Holler is the oldest of the Orphan Barrels at a whopping 28 years old. This is George Dickel whiskey that has been aged to one of the longest ages in the market. The nose is heavy oak with notes of bubblegum, raisins, and very ripe bananas, followed by a taste that begins with cinnamon, clove, and vanilla but gets overrun by oak and barrel tanins laced with sweet vanilla and warm spices. As expected of a 28 year old whiskey, the end results has bitter notes with tons of oak. This is a bottle that was a one time release and now that all the mashbill has been bottled will not be released again. That being said the 28 year aging is for those with palates that favor the strong.

THE BOTTLING

A bottle of 24 year Kentucky straight bourbon is exclusive in it's own right, however one with this background and history is even that much more special.  What began almost 2 years ago by our Head of Spirits Archeology to locate some mythical 24 year bourbon that was being stored in Europe has culminated in a spectacular bottling by C. Dully out of Switzerland, hand selected from samples, and bottled exclusively for The Bourbon Concierge.   This was bottled at cask strength, a surprisingly approachable 95.6 proof, 700ml size, and with one of the most gorgeous bottle designs we have seen on the market by C. Dully.  The bourbon inside the bottle is some of the most highly sought after distillate with extremely robust flavors, viscous mouthfeel, just the right amount of oak tannins, and a proof which allows you to sip for days.  Your bottle comes complete with a gorgeous Bourbon Concierge velvet bag which mimics the look of the Pappy Van Winkle 23 and 20 bottles however at a much higher quality.

THE HISTORY

This particular bourbon was distilled in 1994, a couple years before an unfortunate event eliminated almost 100,000 barrels of whiskey from the distillery (NDA states we cannot name it).  It was aged for 12 years in Kentucky, before the barrels were then transported overseas where it aged for an additional 12 years and was ultimately poured into stainless steel vats to prevent further barrel aging.  For the last couple years a few independent bottlers have been buying up supply making it increasingly difficult to get and as of early 2022, all of the supply has been depleted, making this particular bottling one of the last of its kind, never to be produced again.  

This release marks the first-ever Very Olde St. Nick private label collaboration, bottled for the first time outside Preservation Distillery in its iconic 375ml format and presented at full cask strength. The whiskey is a custom blend of 17- and 21-year-old Stitzel-Weller–distilled bourbon, preserved for decades in stainless steel tanks—liquid from a legendary distillery that no longer exists.

Curated under the stewardship of Marci Palatella, Founder of Preservation Distillery and one of the most influential figures in modern American whiskey, this release represents a convergence of history, rarity, and uncompromising quality.

Experience Notes:

Nose: Deep and immediately expressive, opening with antique leather, polished oak, and old library books. Waves of dark caramel, molasses, and toffee follow, layered with dried fig, black cherry, and pipe tobacco. Subtle notes of baking spice, clove oil, and dusty rickhouse oak underscore the whiskey’s age and provenance.

Palate: Silky and full-bodied, showcasing the unmistakable Stitzel-Weller mouthfeel. Rich caramel and brûléed sugar lead, followed by cocoa powder, roasted pecan, and dark honey. The mid-palate reveals seasoned oak, dried apricot, and a gentle herbal note, all perfectly integrated despite the cask-strength presentation.

Finish: Long, warm, and contemplative. Leather, old oak, and sweet tobacco linger alongside dark chocolate, vanilla bean, and a final echo of spice. The finish fades slowly, leaving a refined sweetness and a sense of depth that only extended aging can provide

Clase Azul México proudly unveils the fifth and ultimate chapter in the revered “Nuestros Recuerdos” collection. This exceptional release serves as a deep, heartfelt homage to Día de Muertos, capturing the delicate balance between the joy of life and the comfort of remembrance. Under the skillful guidance of Master Distiller Viridiana Tinoco, this exquisite Añejo Tequila is a testament to Mexican tradition, masterful spirit, and unparalleled artistry.

The Spirit: A Layered Añejo with Depth

This meticulously crafted Añejo tequila is distilled from 100% Blue Weber Agave. The liquid is a complex blend of tequilas matured from 12 to 36 months in virgin American whiskey barrels. To achieve its distinctive character, a portion of the agave is uniquely slow-cooked in a traditional earth pit oven, lending profound roasted and smoky notes that call to mind an ancestral Mexican kitchen. The resulting tequila is a smooth, warm experience, offering inviting flavors of caramelized agave, bright orange zest, subtle clove, and a perfect touch of oak-toasted spice. This is more than a drink; it's a liquid meditation on love and memory.

The Decanter: A Canvas of Remembrance

The ceramic bottle itself is a collector's dream, finished in a serene ivory hue that evokes quiet dignity. Designed by artist Erika Rivera, the illustration at the base beautifully depicts a family’s ofrenda, laden with traditional symbols: bright cempasúchil flowers, sweet pan de muerto, delicate papel picado, celebratory sugar skulls, and flickering candles. Soft, ethereal silhouettes of ancestors are woven into the scene, symbolizing the cherished, yet subtle, presence of the departedduring this special holiday.

The Ornament: A Golden Keepsake of Eternal Love

Adorning the neck of this final bottle is a magnificent 24-karat gold-plated locket, painstakingly handcrafted by the master artisans of Milagros de Latón in Jalisco. This bespoke piece opens to reveal a polished obsidian cameo, a dark mirror representing the clarity of eternal memory. The locket's face is intricately detailed with traditional milagritos (tiny brass miracles) that symbolize blessings, protection, and devotion, framed by sculptural elements of candles and sugar skulls. The creation of each ornament demands over 12 hours and more than 50 precise steps, culminating in a beautifully hand-finished patina.

The old crow traveler bottling was produced by the old crow distillery which at the time was part of the national distillers corporation portfolio. This particular bottling was made for the “traveling business man” in the 1960s and 70s.   We have a few of these from the same period, some are age stated 6 years and others are not.   This particular product sku does not guarantee an age stated bottling.

National Distillers is one of the most sought after "vintage" producers. Known for it's beautiful flavors of baking spices, fresh cookies and cake. The old crow traveler bottles were produced for "business men" who traveled and flew on planes, created with a bottle mold that was intended to fit inside a suit jacket. Jim beam acquired all national distillers brands in 1987, eventually running out of their distillate in the early 90s. This old crow is nothing like what you can find today.
