@davidthomastao: Fast facts: “Bottled in Bond” is a term originating from the U.S. Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, designed to help ensure spirits quality. It refers to a spirit — typically American whiskey, but it can be other things! — that meets certain criteria: produced by one distiller at a single distillery in one season, aged at least four years in a federally bonded warehouse, and bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% alcohol by volume). The label must identify the distillery.
