1967 Masterson's Station Straight Rye Whiskey aged 16 years --value?

[dangolf18]

Got an old bottle with tax stamp on top. I can't seem to find anything on this whiskey and I've done a lot of research. Can anyone tell me anything about it? Value?

Seems like no one is on this forum....not one person has any info? Anybody know of another forum where I can post this question?

I'm thinking this may have been a private contract bottling ? Just the name/label suggests that possability .

thanks. I'm just pondering whether I should drink it or save it and possibly sell it if its rare and valuable.

We haven't forgotten about you! We have reached out to several of our contacts and so far, no luck. Checking out a few other avenues at this time. These old whiskey brands certainly can be challenging as you know when it comes to digging up background info and value. In the meantime, you can try submitting a request for value to Kovels.com - I did try searching their site as well as their archives, but unfortunately, no luck there either.

Nitehawk55 - you're right on! We consulted with Chris Morris - master distiller for Woodford Reserve and a very knowledgeable historian of American whiskeys to boot! He said: "Masterson’s Station was as you thought a private label bottling from what is now the Wild Turkey Distillery."

We can try to see if there's any chance we can obtain info from Wild Turkey.
