Jefferson’s Presidential Select 18 Year Bourbon

Jefferson’s Presidential Select 18 Year is one of the most talked-about releases in the Jefferson’s lineup, largely because of its connection to legendary Stitzel-Weller distillate—the same source behind early Pappy Van Winkle bourbons. Released around 2012, this wheated bourbon delivers a rich, mature profile with notes of caramel, vanilla, dried fruit, and polished oak, balanced by a soft, rounded mouthfeel. Early batches are especially prized for being 100% Stitzel-Weller, while later batches were blended with other aged bourbon, which makes batch identification important for collectors.
