Description

Berghoff 14 Year Old 90 Proof NV


Glass code: 78, labels slightly scuffed and torn around the edges, sticker around neck of bottle slightly peeling


For decades Julian “Pappy” Van Winkle and his Stitzel-Weller distillery bottled private label versions of their iconic bourbon for the Berghoff Restaurant Co., a storied establishment in Chicago. After the distillery’s new ownership ended the relationship in 1992, Pappy’s grandson, Julian Van Winkle III, offered to continue bottling it at his Commonwealth Distillery. There he bottled 10 and 14 year old whiskey at 90 and 107 proofs, as well as a very small run of 10 year old 120 proof. Berghoff bourbon from Stitzel-Weller represents some the rarest and most sought after releases ever produced by the Van Winkle family.
