Would have been even better if that whiskey was still in the barrel instead of the bottle.
It'd be best if it were in my jar.

Very interesting bottle. Does it say what year it was bottled?


It says distilled before 1918, aged 11 years. So it was bottled no later than 1929.

Liar you know you immediately researched it to see that it is worth $1500-$1600.


At the time of making this thread, I did not know the value. I couldn’t find one. I saw others by the same company for sale at $1200 or so.

I only ask as the label and raised glass lettering implies it's forbidden yet pre-prohibition. Confusing.

ETA or are they saying it was casked in 1918 and bottled after the lift?

I take it as it was distilled and barreled before 1918, making it bottled no later than 1929, since it’s 11 years old. But it is a blend, so I’m not sure

I doubt it. Never been opened, very little loss to evaporation. It’s not like wine.
