Antique Spiritus Frumenti 100 Proof 1917 (1 Pint)

Antique Spiritus Frumenti 100 Proof

Distilled in Spring 1917 at the Frankfort Distillery by The Geo. T. Stagg Company Inc., bottled in 1934, ullage: mid shoulder

This bottle, and especially its packaging, is a rare historical testament to the changes imposed by Prohibition. Produced at the George T. Stagg distillery, now known as Buffalo Trace, it comes in a tamper-proof box with an extensive note on the back to druggists and consumers, explaining how to open it and how to look for evidence of tampering. Its 1934 bottling date speaks to the lingering effect of Prohibition a year after its repeal. The whiskey itself is exquisite – 17-year-old bourbon, distilled over a century ago.
