This Kentucky Bourbon pays tribute to the earliest days of our distillery’s history, when in 1939 we released our first Bottled-in-Bond. This Bourbon was our namesake brand, and quickly became the top-seller in the state of Kentucky. Still today, the craftsmanship poured into Heaven Hill Bottled-in-Bond by the same founding family meets the exacting standards first set forth in the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897.

Barrel #46 Añejo – 98.4 ProofAged 16 months in ex-bourbon barrels
On the nose, this Añejo opens with a deep, savory richness reminiscent of a well-aged cigar humidor—earthy, mature, and complex. Hints of charred oak and dried tobacco complement subtle vanilla undertones.
The palate is lush and layered, leading with a rich custard creaminess that unfolds into a warm core of fried plantain—ripe, caramelized, and slightly smoky. Notes of dark chocolate and toasted spice round out the profile, delivering a full-bodied, dessert-like experience balanced by the structure of the bourbon cask.
A contemplative and satisfying sip, ideal for slow appreciation.
