Description

Old Rip Van Winkle 15 Year Old 107 Proof NV


Glass code: 00, bottle #I7168, bottled by Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery, Lawrenceburg, KY, good level


Many consider 15 years to be the perfect age for Van Winkle whiskeys: old enough to develop rich barrel-influenced notes of leather and vanilla but not so old that those influences take over. Until 2004, the 15-year-old was bottled under the Old Rip Van Winkle brand, in a squat, or barrel, bottle – after that it was sold under the Pappy Van Winkle line, in a taller, cognac-style bottle, making this bottle an alluring historical artifact.


1 bt 75cl (nop)
