254 : Kentucky Vintage 1976
This auction is closed, biddings on the lot are no longer possible
Kentucky Vintage is one of the flagship brands produced by Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD), the owners and operators of Willett distillery. When this bottled was filled, the distillery was silent, and KBD were using it exclusively as a bottling plant. Almost all the distillery’’s stock produced before it closed in the 1980s was redistilled for industrial purposes, with the distillery converting to gasohol production in the late 1970s. Only a few casks were recovered by the Kulsveen family when it bought the distillery and created Kentucky Bourbon Distillers in 1983. Most of the group’’s bottlings were therefore produced with bourbon from other distilleries, like Heaven Hill. This version distilled in 1976, however, is from the Willett distillery. Their warehouses were stocked with whiskey from nearly every distillery except their own, as almost all of the Willett stock from before its closure in the 1980s was re-distilled for industrial use. The majority of KBD bottlings were produced using bourbon from neighbours, Heaven Hill.
