No collection of South Jersey glass would be complete without an example of a Chestnut Grove Whiskey and this is as good as it gets. The discriminating collector will note not only the exceptional color and crudity of this example but also the extra care taken by the blower in creating and applying the handle. You will NOT find a finer example of this desirable South Jersey handled whiskey.
