Old Farm Pure rye whiskey I believe is what I had read.

48 bottles he drank.
I guess it tasted pretty good.

Re: Renter Drinks 52 bottles of Pre-Prohibition Whiskey
Let's assume the whiskey was delicious, and the pilferer enjoyed it to its fullest. I'm actually glad that it ended up being enjoyed by someone rather than in a collector's untouchable cabinet, or as it lies now, shut under the staircase where it will remain "for a very long time."

Re: Renter Drinks 52 bottles of Pre-Prohibition Whiskey
Are they really trying to value this whiskey at ~ $2K/bottle?
