Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon “Sweet vanilla nose with caramel, pecan and oak wood. Smooth, mellow flavor consisting of robust wheat, cherries and oak. Features a long, smoky wheat finish with hints of fruit, spice and oak tannins.”
“A whiskey connoisseur’s bonanza…remarkable find…ranks with the best whiskies.”
-Paul Pacult’s Spirit Journal
Van Winkle 12 Year Old Special Reserve Lot B Bourbon Tasting Notes:
Van Winkle 12 Year Old Special Reserve Lot B Bourbon is the perfect combination of age and proof. This sweet, full-bodied whiskey has been described by some as “nectar.” The 12 years of aging and medium proof seem to be just right in creating a very pleasant drink of whiskey. The 12 year old Special Reserve is one of the original products bottled by Julian Van Winkle III at his facility in Lawrenceburg. He first bottled it in 1991, using 1979 vintage Stitzel-Weller bourbon, a one-time release called ‘Lot A.’ The subsequent and inaugural release of the Lot B was bottled the same year, and has been a permanent part of the range ever since.
