Bonds Mill 1936 Bottled in Bond 8 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon

A fantastic example of post-Prohibition distilled Kentucky bourbon. The Prohibition Act of 1920, which had outlawed the production and consumption of alcohol was eventually repealed in 1936. After a decade dry however, there were very few operating distilling companies in the US, and even fewer distilleries.

This was distilled and bottled in bond at the Old Joe distillery in Lawrenceburg. There have been two Old Joe distilleries in the area, one built by the Ripy Brothers, which shut down in 1917, and the one that produced this. Both were located near where the current Four Roses distillery now stands. Old Joe has been shut for many years, however was used for some time as a warehousing facility by Wild Turkey, who's Boulevard distillery was also built by the Ripys.

This was distilled in 1936 and bottled at 8 years old in 1944.
