A.H. Hirsch Reserve 1974 16 Year Old Straight Bourbon
This is one of earlier 1990s bottlings of A.H. Hirsch Reserve. Julian Van Winkle's ledgers show that he was drip-fed orders for the whiskey, and only produced limited case numbers to-order when requested by Hue. This has lead to a variety of different bottlings at different ages. This is the the first of several labelled as 16 year olds that were bottled through the 1990s. This black wax-topped "squat" bottle was filled at a slightly lower proof than others.
