Old Rip Van Winkle 12 Year Special Reserve — also known as Van Winkle Special Reserve — is one of the most celebrated and sought-after expressions in the legendary Pappy Van Winkle family, produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery. Aged a full 12 years on a wheated mash bill, this is the perfect combination of age and proof — described by some as "nectar." Rich, deep, and outrageously smooth, it can compete with any excellent cognac as an after-dinner drink. Bottled at 90.4 proof (45.2% ABV).
The Pappy Van Winkle family of bourbons — produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery — is widely regarded as the most coveted and collectible American whiskey in the world. The 12 Year Special Reserve is one of the most accessible expressions in the lineup and among the most sought-after annual releases in bourbon.
Released once a year in extremely limited quantities through a lottery allocation system — demand far exceeds supply at every price point in the Van Winkle range.
750ml at 90.4 proof / 45.2% ABV, 12 years old.
