Jefferson's 26 yo Tennessee

[sku]

A new Jefferson's Presidential: https://www.ttbonline.gov/colasonlin...13316001000252

This is almost certainly Dickel. I know there are some super-aged Dickel barrels floating around out there.

Most likely and arm and a leg and not even worth a pinky finger. But who knows? I was not impressed with the 21 year. I would love to eat crow.

My guess: expensive and hard to find.

Not sure what the connection with Luxco is. Jefferson's is owned by Castle Brands.

[393foureyedfox]

so is it just coincidence that there is another 'jeffersons' brand?

[smknjoe]

There is only one Jefferson's in the booze world.

I expect Luxco owns the whisky.

If nothing else you must say the folks at Jefferson are busy making labels

I take it then that Jack Daniel's doesn't have any super old (20+) barrels in their warehouses?

[squire]

Doubtful . . . . . . . . . .

Got to be a great time to be a producer / seller.... if you got it (whatever it is) , someone will buy it. (And can package it, mark it up, and sell it.)

To someone who will mark it up and sell it to someone who will mark it up and sell it...

That's what makes the world go round.

Its all about profit. No sense in being in business if you can't make it.

Consider that they more than double the price just for slightly higher proof. A bottle of 20+ year old Jack would cost as much as a new Korean car.

[squire]

They would have to deliver it in armored vehicles.

yeah....i wanted to try this year's holiday select at 98 proof, but not at $50. if 80 proof is $20 or so, how does 98 proof warrant $50? I guess you already have to be a JD fan to fall for that one...........6.6cents per proof in the regular 80 proofer, and 13.6 cents per proof in the HS.....I'll pass
