Old Fitzgerald Bottled-in-Bond 17 Year Old Bourbon represents one of the most prized releases in the modern American whiskey landscape. Produced at Heaven Hill Distillery in Kentucky, this expression honors the long and distinguished heritage of the Old Fitzgerald brand, which dates back to the late 1800s and has long been associated with wheated bourbon recipes of exceptional character. Bottled-in-Bond standards guarantee not only authenticity but also unmatched quality: distilled in a single season, crafted by one distiller, matured in a federally bonded warehouse, and bottled at 100 proof.

What sets the 17 Year apart is its remarkable aging process, allowing the bourbon to rest in new charred American oak barrels for nearly two decades. Over this extended maturation, the whiskey develops a profound depth, with rich oak tones, layers of caramelized sweetness, subtle baking spices, and a lasting finish that speaks to the patience and craftsmanship behind every bottle. The wheated mash bill softens the profile while letting the complexity of time in the barrel shine through, offering a rare balance between elegance and intensity.

As part of the acclaimed Old Fitzgerald decanter series, the 17 Year Old comes in a collectible glass bottle inspired by vintage decanters from the brand’s mid-20th century legacy. Each release is marked by a high level of scarcity, making it not only a standout on the shelf but also a sought-after centerpiece for serious bourbon enthusiasts and collectors alike. The prestige of the Heaven Hill name, the Bottled-in-Bond designation, and the extended 17-year age statement combine to create a whiskey that exemplifies the very best of Kentucky bourbon tradition.

Food Pairings This bourbon pairs beautifully with roasted or braised meats such as spiced pork loin, smoked brisket, or roasted lamb, where its caramel, oak, and spice notes enhance savory richness. It complements aged or nutty cheeses like Comté, Manchego, or sharp cheddar, and desserts featuring nuts, dried fruits, or caramel—pecan tart, almond cake, or chocolate ganache resonate perfectly with its layered sweetness and gentle spice.
