MILLER’S RATAFIA DAMIANA. SIEBE BROS. & PLAGEMANN SOLE AGENT PACIFIC COAST

Posted on April 30, 2019 by ABAstaff in Bottle of the Month, Featured Bottle, News
870

PHOENIX WHISKEY NABER, ALFS & BRUNE SAN FRANCISCO

Posted on January 16, 2015 by ABAstaff in Sold

(Thomas 124) Fifth, tooled top.  1890’s. Another of the tooled Phoenix fifths, this has the whiskey name on it.  It is considered rarer than the bourbon (123) but about as rare as the (124).  Either way, they are similar in color and condition, this one also being about perfect.  Grades a 9.7.  [add_to_cart item="083" ]

PHOENIX BOURBON NABER, ALFS & BRUNE SAN FRANCISCO

Posted on January 16, 2015 by ABAstaff in Sold
