O.F.C. 100 Proof 1916 (1 Pint)

O.F.C. 100 Proof

Distilled in Spring 1916, bottled in Spring 1925, distilled at the Frankfort Distillery by The Geo. T. Stagg Company Inc., ullage: mid shoulder

O.F.C. – or Old-Fashioned Copper – was the original name of the distillery founded by Col. E. H. Taylor Jr. in 1870, located in Frankfort, Kentucky on the site of an even older distillery. He soon lost control of it to an investor named George T. Stagg, after whom the distillery was later renamed. Eventually both George T. Stagg and O.F.C. would become names of whiskeys distilled at the site. During Prohibition the distillery was sold to the Schenley company, which had a license to continue to sell – though not distill – whiskey for medicinal purposes. This bottle, distilled in 1916 and bottled in 1925, bears not only the name of the distillery but its plant manager, Albert B. Blanton – a curious but not uncommon practice during Prohibition.shoulder
