*Packaging May Vary
Wine Enthusiast 97 points - Dark, spicy-sweet, deep vanilla aroma, and unlike many Bourbons, it tastes just like it smells. Medium to heavy body, with a mellow, lingering finish. Great sipper on a blustery night. - K.N..September/2010
Ultimate Beverage Challenge 92 points - This is an utterly indulgent whiskey with embarrassingly generous aromas of honey-drenched pecans, golden raisin puree, creme brulee, and smoked anisette. The palate indulges with more pastry notes and melted corn candy. The finish resounds with a hint of cinnamon and more sweet oak. - 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge.April/2018
This bourbon is aged 20 years and bottled at 90.4 proof. This whiskey is wonderfully smooth and rich. No other bourbon today can stand 20 years of aging, but this bourbon does it with style. “Pappy” Van Winkle was a true character. This bourbon, like “Pappy”, is full of character that makes it a very special whiskey. It has been put in the class of a fine after dinner cognac.
