Condition notes: Minor age related wear, otherwise in great condition for the age.
Bottled during the golden era of Owensboro whiskey production, this coveted 15-year-old Old Ezra showcases bourbon history at an authoritative 101 proof. Complete with its original wooden box insert and collector's neck booklet, it delivers intense depths of antique oak, rich pipe tobacco, and stewed fruit rarely replicated in modern distilling. A standout centerpiece pour, it represents vintage American whiskey collecting at its finest.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Aromas of polished antique mahogany, pipe tobacco, rich dark molasses, and weathered leather, underscored by dried cherries, toasted pecans, and vanilla bean.
Palate: Viscous and decadent on the palate, opening with deep barrel char, dark chocolate-covered espresso beans, warming baking spices, and candied orange peel over a foundation of caramelized sugar.
Finish: Exceptionally long and resonant, lingering with notes of dusty cigar box, old oak tannin, chewy toffee, and a delicate touch of wintergreen mint.
