History,
Pappy Van Winkle 20 Year The #1 rated Bourbon Whiskey in the world with a 99 out of 100 rating by the World Spirits Championship. This bourbon is aged 20 years and bottled at 90.4 proof for a wonderfully smooth and rich profile. Pappy Van Winkle was a true character and like its namesake, this bourbon whiskey is full of character – quite a remarkable whiskey. One of the last years that Pappy Van Winkle 23 was bottled using Stitzel-Weller juice before Buffalo Trace began using its own barrels for producing Pappy Van Winkle.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Massive oak right up front which was followed almost immediately by an intense blend of vanilla, cherry, and caramel, leather, cinnamon, and a strong floral scent like fresh roses.
Palate: caramel, vanilla and some toffee/cherry notes. Dried oak, apples, syrupy fruit, and wood layered in oily varnish.
Finish: A long long finish
