Hi [[ contact.first_name | capitalize | default: "Fellow whiskey drinker" ]],
Two of the three Old Commonwealth expressions just arrived. Here's where everything stands.
Kentucky Nectar Kentucky Straight Bourbon — in stock, shipping now. The expression that drew the most curiosity from pre-sale buyers who weren't already familiar with Old Commonwealth's lineup — grain-forward, measured oak influence, the caramel and honeyed sweetness that the distillery's production approach builds across the aging period without the oak overwhelming the
grain's own contribution. The finish holds longer than the proof suggests it will, a dry wood note threading through the warmth at the close.
Red Top Rye 7 Year Kentucky Straight Rye — in stock, shipping now. Seven years on rye has done what seven years typically does to a well-made grain: organized the spice, deepened the dried citrus, built a mid-palate density that the younger expression gestured toward without reaching. At this age the rye isn't asserting itself — it's settled. The difference is legible in the
glass.
Old Hoffman 6 Year Double Oaked Bourbon — still on backorder. We're expecting it in August. Everyone who pre-ordered Hoffman has it coming — nothing has changed except the timeline.
If you have questions about your specific order, reply directly and we'll get back to you same day.
Cheers, De Wine Spot Team
