This Kentucky Bourbon pays tribute to the earliest days of the distillery's history, when it released the original Heaven Hill Bottled-in-Bond in 1939. The namesake brand quickly became the number-one-selling Bourbon whiskey in the state of Kentucky. Today, the craftsmanship poured into this bottle meets the exacting standards first set forth in the Bottled-in-Bond act of 1897. This historic offering reflects our founders' firm belief that it takes patience and perseverance to make something of great quality.
