Despite the exquisite quality of the whiskey, its high price point turned away too many customers, and the Rare Bourbon collection got the ax.

Bourbon & Rye Whiskey | The American Muscle Collection + The Three Continents Collection Pt III

Black Maple Hill Small Batch Bourbon 16 Year Old 95 proof NV

Black Maple Hill Small Batch Bourbon 16 Year Old 95 proof NV Limited edition bottling, bottled by Black Maple Hill Distillery Co., Bardstown KY, black label, ullage: very top shoulder, black capsule cracked 1/2 of the way around, front label very slightly worn Image shown is for reference only. For bottle condition please refer to cataloguing notes above. 1 bt 75cl (nop) Black Maple Hill is among the most coveted American whiskeys, with a history that connects it with some of the biggest names in Kentucky distilling. Like several other extremely limited-release brands from the early 2000s, Black Maple Hill did not make its own whiskey, or even bottle it. Rather, its owner, a California-based company called CVI Brands, hired Julian Van Winkle III to find high-quality barrels of whiskey and bottle it for them. At the time, Van Winkle was working out of the disused Hoffman Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, where he bottled whiskey for his own brand, Old Rip Van Winkle, as well as for clients like CVI, all of which have long since achieved legend status among collectors. It is assumed that much of those early Black Maple Hill releases drew from Van Winkle’s barrels that he inherited from Stitzel-Weller, which his grandfather had helped found but which his father had been forced to sell. The rye whiskey he bottled for CVI, at 23 years old (LOTS #225-#227) came from a legendary batch made at the Bernheim distillery, the same whiskey that went into near-mythical bottlings like LeNell’s Red Hook Rye. Both the bourbon and the rye were released in minuscule amounts. Most of the releases were very old, some over twenty years old, and released in minuscule batches. By many accounts it was some of the best bourbon whiskey ever sold, ranking with early releases of Old Rip Van Winkle, Olde St. Nick and others legends. The relationship with Van Winkle lasted just a few years. With interest in bourbon picking up – and especially interest in his whiskeys – Van Winkle was running out of stock, and in 2002 he signed a deal with Sazerac to produce his Van Winkle line of whiskey at the company’s Buffalo Trace distillery. That deal required him to cancel his sourcing and bottling contracts, including with CVI Brands. The company pivoted quickly, signing a new deal with Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, owned by the Kulsveen family and located at the old Willett Distillery. (It’s easy to tell the difference between Van Winkle and KBD bottlings: If the label says “Bottled in Lawrenceburg, KY,” it’s from Van Winkle; if it says “Bottled in Bardstown, KY,” it’s from Willett.) At the time, KBD/Willett did not yet have its own working distillery. W; what it did have, though, was a vast library of extraordinary barrels from distilleries across Kentucky, which the Kulsveens had bought for bargain-basement prices during the lowest points of the bourbon bust in the 1980s and 1990s. Reportedly, most of the whiskey that the Kulsveens bottled for Black Maple Hill came from Heaven Hill, but it is also possible that some of it came from the Barton Distillery and from Bernheim., in particular a series of rye releases, examples of which are included in this collection. The change in sourcing and bottling did not hurt Black Maple Hill – if anything, the association with Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, at the time a quiet, some might say reclusive operation, only added to its cachet. So did its packaging: It came in a wine bottle with a simple, vaguely retro label, setting it apart from the rest of the market. And, of course, the whiskey itself was still amazing, even though the ages came down a bit under the new arrangement. Eventually the Kulsveens faced the same problem Van Winkle had. Demand for their own label, Willett Family Estate, was climbing, even as they made plans to open their own distillery. With access to older stocks dwindling, Black Maple Hill moved first to a no-age-statement label, then finally ceased altogether. It returned in 2014, this time in a new bottle shape and with whiskey made on contract at the Stein distillery in Oregon. While the name and the labels are the same, the whiskey inside is completely different, not even reminiscent of the brand’s glory days – if nothing else, they highlight just how magical those earlier bottles truly are.

For bottle condition please refer to cataloguing notes above. 1 bt 75cl (nop) Black Maple Hill is among the most coveted American whiskeys, with a history that connects it with some of the biggest names in Kentucky distilling. Like several other extremely limited-release brands from the early 2000s, Black Maple Hill did not make its own whiskey, or even bottle it. Rather, its owner, a California-based company called CVI Brands, hired Julian Van Winkle III to find high-quality barrels of whiskey and bottle it for them. At the time, Van Winkle was working out of the disused Hoffman Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, where he bottled whiskey for his own brand, Old Rip Van Winkle, as well as for clients like CVI, all of which have long since achieved legend status among collectors. It is assumed that much of those early Black Maple Hill releases drew from Van Winkle’s barrels that he inherited from Stitzel-Weller, which his grandfather had helped found but which his father had been forced to sell. The rye whiskey he bottled for CVI, at 23 years old (LOTS #225-#227) came from a legendary batch made at the Bernheim distillery, the same whiskey that went into near-mythical bottlings like LeNell’s Red Hook Rye. Both the bourbon and the rye were released in minuscule amounts. Most of the releases were very old, some over twenty years old, and released in minuscule batches. By many accounts it was some of the best bourbon whiskey ever sold, ranking with early releases of Old Rip Van Winkle, Olde St. Nick and others legends. The relationship with Van Winkle lasted just a few years. With interest in bourbon picking up – and especially interest in his whiskeys – Van Winkle was running out of stock, and in 2002 he signed a deal with Sazerac to produce his Van Winkle line of whiskey at the company’s Buffalo Trace distillery. That deal required him to cancel his sourcing and bottling contracts, including with CVI Brands. The company pivoted quickly, signing a new deal with Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, owned by the Kulsveen family and located at the old Willett Distillery. (It’s easy to tell the difference between Van Winkle and KBD bottlings: If the label says “Bottled in Lawrenceburg, KY,” it’s from Van Winkle; if it says “Bottled in Bardstown, KY,” it’s from Willett.) At the time, KBD/Willett did not yet have its own working distillery. W; what it did have, though, was a vast library of extraordinary barrels from distilleries across Kentucky, which the Kulsveens had bought for bargain-basement prices during the lowest points of the bourbon bust in the 1980s and 1990s. Reportedly, most of the whiskey that the Kulsveens bottled for Black Maple Hill came from Heaven Hill, but it is also possible that some of it came from the Barton Distillery and from Bernheim., in particular a series of rye releases, examples of which are included in this collection. The change in sourcing and bottling did not hurt Black Maple Hill – if anything, the association with Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, at the time a quiet, some might say reclusive operation, only added to its cachet. So did its packaging: It came in a wine bottle with a simple, vaguely retro label, setting it apart from the rest of the market. And, of course, the whiskey itself was still amazing, even though the ages came down a bit under the new arrangement. Eventually the Kulsveens faced the same problem Van Winkle had. Demand for their own label, Willett Family Estate, was climbing, even as they made plans to open their own distillery. With access to older stocks dwindling, Black Maple Hill moved first to a no-age-statement label, then finally ceased altogether. It returned in 2014, this time in a new bottle shape and with whiskey made on contract at the Stein distillery in Oregon. While the name and the labels are the same, the whiskey inside is completely different, not even reminiscent of the brand’s glory days – if nothing else, they highlight just how magical those earlier bottles truly are.

LeNell's Red Hook Rye 23 Year Old Barrel #3 68.8 abv

LeNell's Red Hook Rye 23 Year Old Barrel #3 68.8 abv Barrel #3, bottle #52 of 192, bottle signed LeNell, good level In the 2000s, LeNell Santa Ana Camacho owned a specialty liquor store in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn. Ahead of her time, she reveled in American whiskey: She not only carried brands like Pappy Van Winkle in her shop, but she traveled to Kentucky to see how she could source more. On one of those trips, she met Drew Kulsveen of the Willett distillery; they got to talking, and soon the two were selecting four barrels of rye whiskey, aged between 23 and 24 years and bottled at cask strength. It was a great choice: the barrels came from a legendary run of whiskey distilled at the Bernheim Distillery, in Louisville, in the early 1980s. Other legendary whiskeys came from the same batch, like Rathskeller Rye and the Bitter Truth, but LeNell’s Red Hook Rye has emerged as the most distinctive and sought after American whiskey, perhaps of all time. To top it all off, this bottle is signed by LeNell herself 1 bt 75cl (nop) Please note that all spirits are sold for collection in New York or delivery within New York via specialized carriers.
