Van Winkle Family Reserve 10 Year Old 80 Proof NV


Bottled by Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery 10/30/96 for Marci Palatella, Lawrenceburg, KY, Japanese Export, bottle #27, ullage: top shoulder, capsule very slightly worn, nop


This is an extremely rare bottling of Lawrenceburg-era Van Winkle Family Reserve at just ten years old and a mere 80 proof. Through the 1990s Julian Van Winkle III was still experimenting with labels, proofs, and ages, leaving behind unicorn bottles like this one. He would later reserve this specific label design for his Van Winkle Family Reserve rye. 


1 bt 75 cl (nop)
