Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve Rye 13 Year

VAN WINKLE FAMILY RESERVE RYE

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT RYE WHISKEY

"This 13-year breaks the mold, as it is one of the oldest rye whiskeys available today. The maturity it has achieved while aging is quite obvious when you take the first sip. It’s a truly unique and rewarding rye whiskey experience." -Paul Pacult
