AN
AMERICAN TREASURE
AMERICA’S
FIRST In the true tradition of its founders, Duncan Taylor & Co. Ltd. has the distinct pride to offer a very limited edition of the rarest Pot Still Straight Bourbon available. Among the finest U.S. Bourbon Whiskies ever produced, A.H. Hirsch Reserve 16 Year Old whiskey is of the absolute highest quality and heralded as the most stylish American bourbon. Hirsch Reserve Bourbon whiskies hail from the time-honored pot-still tradition; a slower, more work intensive, more expensive relic of a bygone era. Distilled in the spring of 1974 and no longer produced, this rare bourbon is the only example of its type available today. Matured in barrel up to the time of bottling at 16 years of age, this whiskey deliciously illustrates the benefits of traditional cask aging. A thick-textured whiskey, perfectly balanced, which coats the mouth. Rich, complex flavors, very spicy, with plenty of mint, evergreen, dried apricots, toffee, and vanilla. Long soothing finish. |
With the distillery no longer in existence, Duncan Taylor & Co is offering the ONLY remaining bottles of this American National Artifact! “THE EXPERTS SPEAK” “…(the)
one American whiskey that had the stuff to transport me
to distilled spirit nirvana…” “…big,
rich, full-bodied, and very complex. To pass this whiskey
by before it disappears would be unfortunate indeed…” “…an
overwhelming aroma of vanilla. A legacy from long years
in the oak…smooth, substantial and refined.” “…most
significant is its (Michter’s Distillery) continued
use of the pot still, in which respect it is unique among
American whiskey distilleries.” “…outrageously
savory, oak-laden, spicy and fruity…best kept secret.” “…a
true after-dinner drink, but it could be served as dessert
itself. Serve it in a snifter – don’t add even
a drop of water – and savor it for its complexity and
sophistication.” |
