This 1930s ad for this illustrious bourbon says it all: ‘A gentleman’s drink, Jefferson Club Whiskey is recognized as the standard in quality and rich flavor. Guaranteed absolutely pure and recommended for family and club use. Ask for “Jefferson Club” and see that you get it.’ Look at the shape of this dusty bourbon. Gorgeous! And what about that beautiful, poetic German sentence ‘Ausländische Erzeugnis’? Ausländische Erzeugnis… Whisper it in the ear of your loved one and she’ll divorce you immediately. Score! Now you won’t have to share this Jefferson Club anymore! This bottle was exported to Germany in the 1960s and has been waiting for someone to ask for it ever since.
