Description

Old Rip Van Winkle 17 Year Old Woodside Partner's Reserve 92.4 Proof 1991


Produced and bottled exclusively for The Village Pub, Woodside CA by Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery, Frankfort KY, barrel #36, batch #A-4, distilled on 4-11-91, bottled on 11-05-08, front label very slightly worn


Note that the label states '15 Summer Old', however the distilled and bottling dates indicate this whiskey is in fact a 17 Year Old.


One of a number of private bottlings created specially for Tim Stannard, owner of The Village Pub in Woodside, California, this 17 Year Old is the final batch, bottled in November 2008. The bottlings were released exclusively through the 'pub' (which was really a fine dining restaurant which went on receive a Michelin Star in the late 2000s). The Stitzel-Weller juice was very highly rated by both Van Winkle and Stannard, with JVW calling it "an exceptional whiskey".


1 bottle 75cl (no original packaging)
