The Cooperstown Distillery Elite Edition Jonathan Ogden is a straight bourbon paying tribute to Hall of Fame offensive tackle Jonathan Ogden, a dominant force for the Baltimore Ravens. Released under the Canton Distillery brand, it is presented in a patented glass football decanter and bottled at 103 proof.
Part of Cooperstown's sports legends series, the bourbon was hand-picked by Ogden himself, and the decanter carries his signature. Inside is a robust straight bourbon from New York, made to be as bold and memorable as the career it honours.
The football-shaped decanter makes a spectacular gift for fans and collectors, and a centrepiece for any bar or game room.
Pour it neat on game day, then keep the decanter on display.
Signed sports decanters like this are made in limited numbers, so each one is a keepsake as much as a bottle of bourbon.
Bourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.
Straight bourbon must be aged at least two years in new charred oak containers and bottled without added colour or flavour. Cooperstown Distillery, in the New York village that is home to the Baseball Hall of Fame, has built a following for its hand-blown sports decanters, and each Elite Edition is signed and hand-picked by a Hall of Famer, which makes these bottles prized by collectors long after the bourbon is gone.
