The bottle you see before you has been one of my most anticipated bottles of 2024. I know that might sound absurd if you consider all of the rare and limited releases around the landscape, but let me explain myself and maybe you’ll see why as well.
The Old Grand Dad brand was previously owned by a now-defunct company called National Distillers. There is a longer backstory that I won’t get into here, but what you need to know is that Old Grand Dad bourbon was generally regarded as a very premium bourbon for much of its life.
In 1987, National Distillers sold the Old Grand Dad brand to the company that would eventually become Suntory Global Spirits (which owns other American brands like Jim Beam and Maker’s Mark). It started to become apparent to enthusiasts in the late 1990s that the profile (taste) of the brand had changed. This led to a drop in sales and the brand was relegated to the bottom-shelf. The Old Grand Dad 114 label – which was once the flagship of the whole line – was a shadow of its former self for the next three decades.
