Old Fitzgerald 14 Years Old Bottled-In-Bond (Fall 2020 Release) Review
From the first sniffs and sips, it’s quickly apparent this is a special, memorable bourbon.
Its sweet, wheated mash bill charms with bright fruit, light caramel, and gentle oak aromas, followed by notes of vanilla, butterscotch, and more oak on the palate. Lithe in body, the finish floats for an age, like a leaf caught in a brisk gust. While its aromas and flavors hit all the right notes, this bourbon is greater than the sum of its parts — it’s an experience.
