Bottled 1970. Stitzel-Weller production. Old Fitzgerald 1849 — the older of the two Stitzel-Weller era Old Fitzgerald expressions in the current Wooden Cork collection, bottled in 1970 when the distillery was still under Van Winkle family-adjacent ownership and producing the same wheated bourbon mashbill that defined the Pappy Van Winkle era.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBottled in 1970 and distilled circa 1960, this Old Fitzgerald 1849 is now over 55 years from its original bottling — a time capsule of Stitzel-Weller wheated bourbon production from the distillery’s most celebrated era. Two years older than the 8-year Stitzel-Weller also in the collection, the 10-year 1970 bottling documents the extended-age tier of the Old Fitzgerald 1849 program as it existed during the distillery’s greatest period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProperly stored bourbon in sealed glass maintains its bottled character essentially indefinitely.
