A fitting tribute to the year Playboy was founded, the Rare Hare 1953 Anniversary Edition is a 17-year Kentucky bourbon finished in XXO Cognac casks from the Champagne region of France. Rare Hare 1953 is imbued with subtle notes of Grande Champagne and Fine Champagne grapes with hints of candied fruit and spices. Bottled at 111 proof and packaged in a commemorative box, only 1,953 bottles will be released for the U.S. market launch and 1,953 bottles for select markets in Asia and Europe.??Passion and sophistication are the foundation of the Rare Hare brand and our spirits collection,?? said Marc Bushala, Chief Executive Officer of Spirit Investment Partners. ??The ??1953 Anniversary Edition?? is an incredible bourbon unlike any other and worthy of being the inaugural whiskey release for Rare Hare.??
