Old Hickory Bourbon announced the launch of its Hermitage Reserve 12-year-old Rye and 15-year-old Barrel Proof Whiskey releases. 

After its founding in 1868 in Fayette County, Ky., Old Hickory outlived Prohibition and was revived by Publicker Distilling Co. in 1933; it was later purchased by R.S. Lipman Company in 2011.

“We know our fans want something with history and true depth,” Trisha Cancilla, vice president of marketing and brand strategy at Lipman Brothers and R.S. Lipman Company, said in a news release. “Our new 12 and 15-year-old releases bring the best of Old Hickory’s tradition straight to your glass. We take great pride in the time and skill poured into every barrel. Each release reflects our belief that great bourbon is earned, not rushed.”

Old Hickory isn’t stopping here. The new bottles join a family of releases, including Old Hickory White Label Straight Bourbon, Old Hickory Blended Whiskey and the limited-edition Hermitage Reserve 10-year-old Barrel Proof Whiskey. 

These bottlings are designed for both collectors and the curious, making their mark on a bourbon market where rarity, flavor and brand story hold more weight than ever.

“For us, whiskey is more than a drink; it’s a legacy,” Cancilla said. “These new releases are our answer to the call for quality and story, shared across the table and over the years.”
