7 years. 86 proof. Very Rare Old Bentley — a pre-revival era Kentucky straight bourbon from an obscure historical label, now over 50 years from original bottling and one of the most unusual vintage expressions in the current Wooden Cork collection.
The Very Rare Old Bentley label is a pre-revival era Kentucky bourbon brand — produced during the period when American whiskey was primarily a commodity product rather than a collector focus. Labels from this era that survive intact after half a century carry significant historical interest, representing Kentucky bourbon production philosophy from before the craft and premium movements transformed the category. The 86 proof standard and 7-year age statement were typical for quality bourbon of the era.
