History,
No other bourbon today can stand 20 years of aging, but this bourbon does it with style. “Pappy” Van Winkle was a true character. This bourbon, like “Pappy,” is full of personality that makes it a very special whiskey, and some might argue, one of our best bourbons. It has been put in the class of a fine after-dinner cognac.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: vanilla and caramel apples. Some faint spices including a hint of cinnamon, clove, and some baking spices. With some dark fruits as well.
Palate: Buttery burnt caramel with a thick mouthfeel. Toasted oak, dark fruits, cherry cough medicine. Some tobacco and earthy notes
Finish: Velvety leathery, oak and cinnamon and butterscotch. Cherry licorice
