Item Description

Pappy Old Rip Van Winkle 10 year old bourbon (750 ml)

Details:

10 Year, 107 Proof

This wonderful bourbon is bottled as close to barrel proof as possible. We add just a splash of our Kentucky limestone well-water when we empty the barrels for bottling. Thus, this whiskey is as smooth as any you will find. The more water you add to whiskey from its natural barrel proof to its bottle proof, the harsher it becomes. This 107 barrel proof seems to be just right.

Rated 94 by the Beverage Tasting Institute

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Sweet and soft, with notes of wheat, corn and custard. Caramel, candy floss and dried fruits.
Palate: Rich and thick with notes of caramel, vanilla, dates, walnuts, coffee beans and soft oak. Very buttery and incredibly smooth.
Finish: Long and spicy with notes of gingernut biscuit and golden syrup on the tail.
