Lionstone Cowgirl Whisky Bottle


At the end of the Civil War the "Call of the West" lured many people to cattle ranching but gold rushes often left ranchers short handed. The migration West had also brought women who found themselves with little choice for survival . . . dancehall girl, dressmaker or marriage! Some of the more hardy, preferring hard work to compromise, became cowgirls filling the void for the ranchers and becoming tough competition for sadder but wiser returning cowboys. Historically significant, LIONSTONE offers the cowgirl in a figural bottle masterpiece--containing the world's finest whisky, LIONSTONE . . . the whisky with the extra blessing of pride!
