Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond

Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond

Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond was introduced back in 2019. This is the first time I have seen it on the shelf in my area. The price is reasonable for the quality of this bottle. It has a nice vanilla cream flavor, but not a very creamy viscosity. The flavors are well balanced, but fade quickly leaving me wanting more.

Overall, I think this is a good bottle for the price. I don’t think I would pay much over retail for this one, but if you can find it at retail it is a good pick.

The origins of Heaven Hill’s eponymous Bottled-in-Bond brand dates to 1939, when upon release, it quickly became the number-one-selling Bourbon Whiskey in the state of Kentucky. The lineage of Heaven Hill Bourbon has been a constant throughout the company’s history, from the original 1939 4-Year-Old Bottled-in-Bond to the 2018 release of Heaven Hill 27-Year-Old. Today, that heritage is once again celebrated with the release of Heaven Hill 7-Year-Old Bottled-in-Bond. Made from Heaven Hill Distillery’s traditional Bourbon mashbill, mingled in small batches, and bottled at 100 proof, this 7-year-old offering of the namesake brand exceeds the minimum four-year aging requirement for a Bottled-in-Bond.
