A. H. Hirsch Reserve 20 Year Red Wax 1974 750mL

A.H. Hirsch Reserve 20 Year Red Wax 1974 is one of the legendary names in American whiskey, a highly collectible old bourbon release.

From the Producer

The 1974 distillate behind A.H. Hirsch Reserve was laid down at the Michter's Pot Still Distillery in Schaefferstown, Pennsylvania, a historic site that later closed, then bottled under the Hirsch name after extended barrel ageing — in this case, 20 years. Because the distillery no longer operates, this stock cannot be replicated, which is central to the bottle's reputation among collectors of old American whiskey.
