Old Rip Van Winkle 12 Year Special Reserve
Old Rip Van Winkle 12-Year Special Reserve (“Lot B”) is a wheated bourbon produced at Buffalo Trace via the Van Winkle joint venture, aged 12 years and bottled at a modest 90.4 proof (45.2% ABV), highlighting its approachable yet mature style.
Aromas of dried mango, cocoa, spiced peach, and rich caramel intermingle with subtle oak and tobacco notes—often described as “nectar” in balance. On the palate, expect round sweetness—cherry, orange peel, honey, and vanilla—melded with elegant baking spice, mild oak tannins, and leather undertones. The finish is smooth and enduring, with lingering caramel, berry fruit, oak, and a gentle dryness that leaves a warm spice echo.
