Old Ripy Kentucky Straight Bourbon Batch #1 37.5cl / Whiskey Barons Collection
The Whiskey Barons Collection is a range of bourbons produced by Campari at their Wild Turkey distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. The series features several bottles, all named after various pre-Prohibition brands.
Old Ripy is a pre-Prohibition brnad produced by the Ripy brothers since the late 19th century. The Ripy name has a strong affiliation to Wild Turkey, as T.B. Ripy produced whiskey for the Austin Nichols company, before eventually selling them his Boulevard distillery, the one we know as Wild Turkey today.
Interestingly, these bottles are produced with the DBA ("doing business as") name of the American Medicinal Spirits Co, who were the biggest bottlers of Prohibition medicinal whiskey. They would go on to become National Distillers, one of America's biggest whiskey companies. They were acquired by Jim Beam in 1987, and there is no affiliation between this and the former entity.
We would recommend viewing/close inspection prior to placing any bids. If this is not an option and you have questions beyond the offered description and images, please contact us for a more in-depth condition report. Otherwise lots will be sold as seen in the images.
Please note: Due to the various ages of bottles and their seals, condition of liquid is at the buyer's discretion and no claim can be lodged against failure/leakage in transit.
