Old Fitzgerald Prime Bourbon 80 Proof

This is a repost for a review I submitted a few days ago. The bourbon I was rating was this one and not Old Fitzgerald 1849. When I saw the different labels I just figured that there was a label change. Sorry, All. On a recent trip to Kentucky, I stopped at a few liquor stores to look for whiskeys and bourbons that I can't find in South Carolina. I was able to find Old Fitzgerald's 1849, Very Old Barton 86pf, and 90 pf. This is a review of the Old Fitzgerald and what a steal for between $12 and $14. The bourbon is light and sweet on the nose with vanilla and some ethanol as well and just a touch of oak. The body is a light sweet yeast bread or sweet roll taste with just a hint of burn and light caramel at the end. The finish was nice but not as long as I would have liked with the wood and caramel finishing it out. Overall, I would rate this a little bit higher but I can't find it here so while I would love to have this in my bar regularly it will only be here as long as this bottle lasts.

Wisconsin! They corner the market on Korbel Brandy but that is another story... The original Old Fitzgerald was introduced in 1870 & maintains the traditional premium wheated whiskey mashbill that John Fitzgerald and Pappy Van Winkle established. This is Good, Not Bad Bottle of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey that is nice, smooth, and Wheatie. Great for mixers! Neat, Rocks, if you can get it grab 2 bottles at this great price! This is like Supper Club Beer "Not Bad" it is a great inexpensive premium bourbon! Be Kind, Be Generous, Be Real, Be Responsible!!! CH33RS

Smells and tastes very young. Don’t go chasing it because of the name. It’s a $20 and under bottle of bourbon.
