Double Eagle Very Rare 20 Year Old

Two decades, a pair of beautiful eagles, one exquisite Whiskey.

The Eagle Rare Bourbon was created by Seagram master distiller Charles L. Beam and introduced in 1975. It stands as one of the last new Bourbon brands introduced before the current era of small-batch Bourbons. In the years since it was acquired by numerous companies before it became a part of the Buffalo Trace Distillery. Its one of the many great Whiskeys that the oldest continuously operating Spirit-making establishment in the United States makes. They started distilling one year before the Declaration of Independence was signed, and they were allowed to keep their stills running during Prohibition.

These rare eagles are a bunch of super-desirable Whiskeys, no doubt about it. Then there’s the Double Eagle Very Rare. This 20-year-old is simply on another level. It’s twice the age of the standard 10-year-old, but the name refers to the super-snazzy and luxurious bottle as well. One beautiful glass eagle figurine is perched atop the bottle in the form of a stopper, the second is inside the exquisite hand-blown decanter. Then there’s the juice itself magnificent just begins to describe it. Yeah, it’s spent two decades in oak, yet it’s so perfectly balanced with that oakiness never overpowering the vanilla and caramel notes. It’s one to display proudly or hide and guard jealously, since less than 300 were made.
