Named after William Heavenhill, a former owner of the distillery site, Heaven Hill Old Style Bourbon is proudly a “straight bourbon”, meaning it is aged for at least two years, although we understand its average age is nearer four years old.

We understand this bourbon’s average age is nearer to four years old rather than the statutory two. However, the four year old age statement previously on Heaven Hill Old Style’s bottle has long since disappeared.
