Very Old Barton Bourbon Whiskey
$14
Inclusive of all taxes
As I was saying, Very Old Barton Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.s not very old.Even by whisk(e)y standards, it's not very old.Very old bourbon is,
what the hell, let's say 20 years ol or more.Six year old bourbon is still in the horribly awkward stage where you date all the wrong people, commit completely to a philosophy or author or band which, 10 years down the road, you'll wince at the memory of.This isn't to say six year old bourbon isn't good, it can be very, very good.t's just not 'very old'.Plus, these days, we don't even know how old Very Old Barton is.Sure, by law, it's gotta be at least two years old, but past that, it's not an exact science.It used to say '6 years old' on the bottle, but, in late 2013 (I think), in a stroke of marketing genius, Buffalo Trace, removed the 'years' and the 'old' part of '6 years old' and just left a rather ambiguous '6' up there on the neck of the bottle.If you need more background on the subject, I'll refer you to the always excellent Sku's Recent Eats who looked into the move a bit more completely
