BOTTLED IN BOND

'Bottled in Bond' is a term used for whiskey that is stored in bonded warehouses, under government supervision, while it ages for at least 4 years.  It must be from a single distiller and be bottled at 50% alcohol (100 proof).  The reasoning behind this system is to delay payment of the excise tax until the whiskey is actually sold and shipped to the retailer.
