Whiskey: Heaven Hill 80th Anniversary Char #3 Bourbon

In 1935, Friday the 13th was anything but unlucky for Heaven Hill, for on that date 80 years ago the fledgling distillery filled its first new oak barrel with new make Bourbon, marking the beginning of a business that has grown to become the largest family-owned and -operated distilled spirits producer in the U.S., as well as the second-largest holder of maturing Bourbon stock.

Size: 750ML

Origin: United States

Distillery: Heaven Hill Distilleries

Detailed Description

To mark this anniversary, Heaven Hill is produced a special run of Bourbon on Saturday, December 12, filling all barrels that day at the company’s original 1935 entry proof of 107. Heaven Hill, like most of the larger distillers, adopted the practice of filling their barrels with 125 proof new make decades ago. The lower entry proof increases the rate of sugar absorption from the wood and of formation of flavorful congeners. In addition, a portion of the day’s production, approximately 280 barrels, will be entered into special heavy char barrels, while the balance will go into barrels at Heaven Hill’s traditional #3 char level.
