OLD RIP VAN WINKLE 10 YEAR
KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY
This bourbon whiskey is bottled at nearly barrel proof. Just a splash of Kentucky limestone water is added after a decade of aging. Rich, yet smooth, this bourbon takes a back seat to none.
COLLECTION
TASTING NOTES
A sweet vanilla nose with caramel, pecan and oak wood. Smooth, mellow flavor consisting of robust wheat, cherries and oak. Features a long, smoky wheat finish with hints of fruit, spice and oak tannins.
REVIEWS
"A whiskey connoisseur's bonanza...remarkable find...ranks with the best whiskies."
-Paul Pacult's Spirit Journal
Rich copper color. Aromas of fruity, buttery caramel fudge, roasted pecans, and fine brown spices with a plush, chewy, fruity-yet-dry medium-full body and a long, lingering cherry tobacco, toffee, raisin toast, charcoal, and peppery spice finish. A sensationally flavorful and deep bourbon for sipping or cocktails. RATING: 95 points (Exceptional) -Beverage Testing Institute
