The 1957 Old Fitzgerald Bonded "Very Very Old" (VVOF) 12-Year-Old Bourbon is a legendary Stitzel-Weller release produced during the era of Julian "Pappy" Van Winkle. Distilled in 1957 and typically bottled in 1969 or 1970, this 100-proof wheated bourbon is considered a "grail" bottle by collectors due to its direct association with Pappy Van Winkle's leadership.
Product Details:
- Proof & Mash Bill: As a Bottled-in-Bond product, it is exactly 100 proof (50% ABV). It features the famous Stitzel-Weller wheated mash bill (approximately 68% corn, 20% wheat, and 12% malted barley).
- Packaging: The 4/5 quart bottle often features a shoulder label reading "A Collector's Item," a piece of marketing foresight that proved accurate. It was frequently sold in ornate velvet-lined presentation cases, sometimes including two glasses.
- Historical Context: The 12-year age statement was rare for bonded bourbon at the time, as the Bottled-in-Bond Act originally limited aging to 8 years until a legal change in 1958 allowed for longer-aged expressions like this one.
