product Details

Old Grand-Dad 1960 Bottled in Bond Bourbon 86 Proof

Featuring the image of Basil Hayden, Old Grand-dad is a classic of the bourbon world. 

This was distilled in 1960 and bottled in bond for export by National Distillers at Old Grand-dad distillery in 1965. As an export product, this was allowied to be filled at a lower 86 US proof, rather than the domestic requirement of 100 proof set out by the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897.

Jim Beam purchased the brand in 1987 and moved its production to their Beam distillery. The Old Grand-dad site is now silent, operating solely as a warehouse facility.
