Old Hickory Bourbon Launches 12 and 15-Year-Old Whiskey for Aged Spirits Lovers

Old Hickory Bourbon Launches Age-Defined Whiskeys

Old Hickory Bourbon has taken a significant step into the world of aged spirits with the introduction of two exceptional offerings: the Hermitage Reserve 12-year-old Rye and the 15-year-old Barrel Proof Whiskey. This latest addition not only enriches Old Hickory's portfolio but also deepens the appreciation of American-made spirits. Established in 1868, Old Hickory has a long-standing history that intertwines traditional craftsmanship and a commitment to quality.

Located in Nashville, Tennessee, Old Hickory has built a reputation over more than 150 years for producing fine whiskey. The company demonstrated remarkable resilience, having outlasted Prohibition, and eventually being revived by Publicker Distilling Co. in 1933. Later, R.S. Lipman Company acquired the brand in 2011, ensuring that its time-honored legacy would continue.

According to Trisha Cancilla, Vice President of Marketing and Brand Strategy at Lipman Brothers and R.S. Lipman Company, "We know our fans want something with history and true depth. Our new 12 and 15-year-old releases bring the best of Old Hickory's tradition straight to your glass. We take great pride in the time and skill poured into every barrel. Each release reflects our belief that great bourbon is earned, not rushed."

The 15-year-old Barrel Proof Whiskey impresses with its bold profile, featuring rich aromas of butterscotch, cake batter, and toasted marshmallow. Upon tasting, drinkers can expect a delightful mix of sweet spices and brown sugar, culminating in a finish reminiscent of butter and waffle cone. In contrast, the Hermitage Reserve 12-year-old Rye offers a beautifully balanced flavor with notes of caramel and vanilla, accompanied by enticing aromas of nutmeg, cinnamon, and mint. Both expressions showcase the meticulous attention to detail that sets Old Hickory apart in a competitive market.

Old Hickory is not resting on its laurels. These new releases join a renowned array of products, such as the Old Hickory White Label Straight Bourbon, Old Hickory Blended Whiskey, and the limited Hermitage Reserve 10-year-old Barrel Proof Whiskey. Tailored for collectors and enthusiasts alike, these bottlings reflect a growing trend where uniqueness, flavor, and brand narrative are increasingly valued.

"For us, whiskey is more than a drink; it's a legacy," Cancilla added. "These new releases are our answer to the call for quality and story, shared across the table and over the years."
