Description
Van Winkle 16 Year Old 90 Proof 1974
Barreled in 1974, bottled in 1990 by Van Winkle Distilling Company, Lawrenceburg, KY, Japanese Export, bottle #04879, ullage: mid shoulder, gold wax very slightly cracking half way around
This bottle fascinates with its historical detail. Distilled in 1974, most likely at the Boone distillery, and bottled in 1990 by Julian Van Winkle III at his Old Commonwealth facility, it is self-evidently intended for the Japanese market – the back label is almost completely in Japanese script.
