Old Grand-Dad Aged 7 Years Bottle in Bond Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Classic meets bold in Old Grand‑Dad 7‑Year Bottled‑in‑Bond Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Distilled in the spring of 2018 and now aged seven years to a fine maturity, this 750 ml bottle honors tradition by adhering to the Bottled‑in‑Bond Act—one distiller, one season, one distillery, four years minimum, and precisely 100 proof. Built from the brand’s signature high‑rye mash bill, it’s spicy yet smooth, with cinnamon‑spice ribboned through carameled oak and vanilla. Each sip feels grounded and nostalgic, but with a renewed sense of depth and clarity that’s rare. Pour it neat or with a whisper of water—it’s a classic elevated.

Nose: Peanut‑brittle sweetness, orange peel sprinkle, brown sugar finish.

Palate: Sweet oak foundation meets cinnamon sugar, gentle char, vanilla caramel, and light rye spice.

Finish: Dry oak, nutty baseline, lingering rye‑spice heat that balances sweet and savory.

Pair with salted caramel pecans or dark chocolate to mirror its sweet-nutty richness. A slice of warmed spiced apple pie echoes the cinnamon-spice notes. For savory contrast, try aged cheddar on toasted rye—it rounds out the sweet-spice interplay with depth.
