About this bottle

Heart of Gold isn’t just a 1972 hit song by Neil Young; it was also Forty Creek’s 2013 special release. Yes, the song shares a name but it isn’t exactly what inspired John Hall. Distillation is broken down into three parts: heads, tails and the coveted middle called the heart of the run. It’s this heart; along with John’s heart felt love for his craft that inspired this release of 9000 bottles.

I'm responsible for 5/9000 of the bottles. Wish I could have had more. I have 2 sealed bottles for the right time or the right person. This is a legendary product now, probably 40 creek's top performance.
