How can we say this?

Years back, leading Kentucky distillers were asked to report their costs to our State. Final figures revealed our Fitzgerald Bourbon to be the most expensively made

by a Bluegrass mile.

Year after year, the story has never changed. (Probably because in 116 years u’e’ve never changed, sticking to the painstaking demands of our original

Sour Mash recipe.)

You’ll find Old Fitz priced among

premium Bourbons — but not

way above them. Have just one taste. Just a taste is all we ask . .

it’s all we’ve ever needed.
