The Old Fitzgerald 17 Year Bourbon Spring 2022 Decanter Release stands as one of the most commanding expressions in the historic decanter series from Heaven Hill. Distilled in fall 2004 and aged for seventeen long years in new charred American oak, this bottled in bond Kentucky straight bourbon emerges at 100 proof with exceptional maturity and depth. As the ninth nationwide release in the series and the first carrying a 17 year age statement, it captures the full character of aged wheated bourbon while honoring a legacy that dates back well over a century.
Inside the ornate decanter rests a powerful and layered whiskey. The nose opens with dark caramel, honeyed sweetness, aged oak and hints of dried fruit, followed by a dense palate filled with toffee richness, baking spices, vanilla and subtle leather tones. Waves of apricot, nutmeg and cinnamon build complexity before giving way to a long finish marked by roasted nuts, cocoa, warm spice and lingering oak warmth. Every sip reveals the slow transformation created by seventeen years of careful maturation, delivering a bold bourbon experience built for collectors and serious whiskey enthusiasts.
