Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Lot B Bourbon 750ml

Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Lot "B" is a wheated bourbon aged 12 years and bottled at 45.2% (90.4 proof). Since 2002 the Van Winkle bourbons have been made at the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, in a partnership with the Van Winkle family.

Using wheat in place of rye makes it soft and rounded. It shows caramel, vanilla, toasted nuts and dried fruit, with a long, sweet finish.

It is one of the hardest bourbons in America to find, released in small amounts once a year. For the older Van Winkle in our range, see Pappy Van Winkle 15 Year; for a younger, stronger bottle, see Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year.

Sip it neat or with a few drops of water, in a Glencairn or tulip glass.

We carry it in the 750ml size, in very limited quantities. More bottles are under bourbon, and the rest of our whiskey is a click away. Pick it up at our Brooklyn store or get same-day delivery across NYC.
