Heaven Hill 12 Year Old Cadenhead's Original Collection

A 12 year old single barrel bourbon from the Wm. Cadenhead World Whiskies series.

The Original Collection was launched by Wm. Cadenhead in the early 1990s, and was the natural successor to replace their famous "dumpy" bottlings. They were generally produced at 46% ABV or lower, but eventually their cask strength alternative, The Authentic Collection, was preferred as the flagship Cadenhead brand. Having disappeared for many years, the label was revived in 2020 and the early releases have become increasingly sought-after rarities.

This was distilled at the Bernheim distillery by Heaven Hill.

Bernheim is a historic Kentucky distillery. It was established by the Bernheim Brothers in the late 19th century, before passing into the hands of the Schenley company following the repeal of Prohibition. When Schenley were bought over by United Distillers in 1987, the distillery was rebuilt as the new owners looked to consolidate their production to a single facility. When United Distillers became Diageo in 1997, the new parent company were interested in bourbon, and sold the distillery to Heaven Hill. Heaven Hill were established in 1935, but their long-serving Bardstown distillery was lost in a devastating fire in 1996. Homeless for three years, the company acquired Bernheim in 1999, and have produced all of their whiskey there ever since.
