This 1983 Whiskey Tastes Like Bourbon-Flavored What?

A Time Capsule in a Bottle: Tasting 1983 Hill & Hill Blended Whiskey 🥃 Travel back to 1983 with us as we crack open a rare 500ml "time capsule" of Hill & Hill Blended Whiskey. This isn't just a vintage find; it's a window into the infamous "Bourbon Glut" era, when legendary Kentucky stocks were so plentiful they were blended into everyday value labels like this one. In this episode, Wayne and Rebecca explore the fascinating history of National Distillers, the transition to metric bottle sizes, and the mystery of what’s actually inside this "bourbon-flavored vodka." With 80% Grain Neutral Spirits (GNS) and 20% straight whiskey—likely sourced from Old Crow or Old Taylor—does that classic "butterscotch" National Distillers profile still shine through? We’re putting this 80-proof relic to the test to see if it’s a "hill to die on" or just a ghost of whiskey past.

Distillery: Hill & Hill Distillery Co., Cincinnati, OH (The Cincinnati location served as the primary blending and bottling hub for National Distillers' value labels). Mash Bill: Undisclosed (Likely 20% high-rye bourbon mash bill from the Old Grand-Dad or Old Crow distilleries in Kentucky, blended with 80% Grain Neutral Spirits).
