1. Title: Vintage Label for Old Rampart Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey - A Glimpse into the Past of American Distilleries This vintage label showcases the Old Rampart Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a spirit that transports us back in time to the mid-1900s. The label, produced by General Distillers Corporation of Louisville, Kentucky, USA, is a testament to the rich history and craftsmanship of American whiskey distilleries. The label's design is a visual feast, with its bold, red, yellow, and brown hues that evoke the warm, inviting character of bourbon. The label's central image features an intricate, hand-drawn illustration of a distillery, complete with smokestacks, barrels, and a water tower, symbolizing the industrial process behind the creation of this fine spirit. Old Rampart Bourbon was aged in charred oak barrels, as indicated by the "Straight Bourbon" label, signifying that the whiskey was distilled from a mash bill that was at least 51% corn and aged for a minimum of two years in new charred oak barrels. The "Bottled at" notation on the label indicates that the whiskey was not only distilled but also bottled at the General Distillers Corporation in Louisville. The label also bears the seal of the United States Government's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, signifying that the whiskey was produced under government supervision during the period of Prohibition and its aftermath. This seal was a requirement for legally produced and sold spirits during this time. The Old Rampart Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey label is a fascinating glimpse into the history of American distilleries and the trade industry during the 1940s and 1950s. Its intricate design and rich history make it a valuable addition to any collection of vintage labels or whiskey enthusiasts.
