I found this bottle sitting on a shelf at a liquor store with an inch of dust on it. It's nothing special but I like Dusty's. This is all the info that I could find...

BOURBON STREET WAS INTRODUCED BY SEAGRAM AROUND 1990-PLUS OR MINUS A YEAR. IT WAS A BLEND OF 51% INDIANA BOURBON AND 49% STRAIGHT RYE WHISKEY, BOTH MADE AT SEAGRAM'S LAWRENCEBURG INDIANA DISTILLERY. IT WAS INTRODUCED TO SEVERAL STATES FOR TEST MARKETING,"THEY WERE PRIMARILY SOUTHERN STATES. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER INTRODUCTION T WAS CONTROVERSY AND LEGAL ISSUES RELATIVE TO THE NAME,"No 1 BOURBON STREET,"- AND THE FAMOUS NEW ORLEANS STREET OF THE SAME NAME. IT DIDN'T LAST LONG ON THE MARKET, PROBABLY LESS THAN SIX MONTHS. THERE WAS ONLY ONE BOTTLING OF THE BRAND AND SEAGRAM RECALLED ALL THE BOTTLES IT COULD LOCATE FROM THE RETAIL STORES AND DESTROYED THEM. THIS IS ONE OF THE RARE BOTTLES THAT SURVIVED.

There is a group called Maker's Mark Collectors on FB. I did an ISO for both bottles.

That looks great!!!

Just noticing the bottom, did you write all that in and put the mix date on there? Great ideas!

Poor mans pappy label looks good. I have an unopened LSU makers bottle with the purple and gold wax, and an opened black and gold saints. Hosted an engagement party for some friends a year ago and one of my drunk friends went into my bar and opened that saints bottle not realizing it wasn't a normal bottle of makers. I was pissed.

I wrote it in haha, seems more hand crafted that way no?

Email the template to me please. I know it was posted but I don't feel like looking for it
