🥃 Vintage Spirits Haul! Rare Whiskey & 70s Liqueurs at Revival Vintage Spirits! 🍒
Join Wayne and Rebecca from Your Bourbon Journey on a special trip to Revival Vintage Spirits in Covington, Kentucky! While known for vintage bourbon and whiskey, this time we’re diving deep into a treasure trove of vintage liqueurs and rare spirits perfect for classic cocktails!
🌟 What We Found in Our Vintage Spirits Haul!
🥃 Rebecca’s Rare Liqueur Finds:
We scored some incredible vintage bottles for Rebecca’s upcoming vintage cocktail series (check out her other cocktail videos!):
- 1971 Cherry Heering: The legendary cherry liqueur—perfect for classic drinks! We’ll be comparing it to a modern sample.
- 1970s Swiss Chocolate Cherry Liqueur: An absolute jewel in stunning opal glass! Swiss chocolate and cherry… what kind of decadent vintage drink will this make?
- 1966 DuBouchett Crème de Menthe: A vintage bottle for an authentic Grasshopper cocktail! We got the idea after enjoying Revival’s delicious vintage cocktails made with 1970s Hiram Walker.
- 1979 Kahlúa (Vintage Pour): We were blown away by the taste of this old-school, coffee-made Kahlúa—thick, rich, and amazing! We bought the last pour to make a special vintage Kahlúa cocktail.
- 1970s Amaretto: Complete with an adorable box and original liqueur glasses! Get ready for a classic Amaretto Sour!
🥃 Wayne’s Rare Whiskey Finds:
Of course, Wayne couldn’t leave without a few vintage whiskey and spirit bottles of his own!
- 1990s Four Roses (Japan Release): A highly sought-after vintage Four Roses—the closest we could get to the 1970s Yellow Label that blew us away on a previous visit! A future “official review” is coming!
- 1970s Sunny Brook Mini Bottle: A National Distillers brand from way back! Vintage minis are a great, affordable way to “dip your toe into vintage pours.”
- 1970s Italian Swiss Colony Port: A vintage California ruby port we snagged for a steal!
- 1960s Schenley Reserve Blended Whiskey! We couldn’t resist a spontaneous tasting of this 8-year blended whiskey (likely 60s/70s) found on an inventory tray.
🥃 TASTING! Schenley Reserve Mini: The Shocking Lemon Whiskey!
We found a legendary piece of history! This mini-bottle of Schenley Reserve is a pristine example of 1960s/70s American blended whiskey. The label confirms its recipe: 8-years-old, composed of 35% straight whiskey (well above the legal minimum!) and 65% Neutral Grain Spirits.
The result is mind-blowing: incredible viscosity, rich creaminess, and an unexpected explosion of flavor that smells exactly like a lemon grove and delivers a bright, beautiful lemon-citrus palate. This tiny bottle is an absolute must-try! We’re already hunting for a bigger one!
Revival Vintage Spirits is an absolute must-visit in Covington, KY! They have so much more than whiskey—including vintage wine, port, tequila, gin, and current single barrels.
