Description

A.H. Hirsch Finest Reserve 20 Year Old 45.8 abv 1974


Green glass, red wax, ullage: high shoulder


While Julian Van Winkle III placed most of the A.H. Hirsch bourbon in steel tanks once it hit 16 years old, he left a few barrels to continue aging. The result was this stunning 20-year-old, the oldest A.H. Hirsch ever. Released somewhere between 1994 and 1995 in Van Winkle’s signature green-glass bottles, it is considered the pinnacle of the A.H. Hirsch line and among the greatest of what American whiskey has to offer. 


1 bt 75cl (nop)
