Both the Old Rip Van Winkle and the Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve labels are now produced at Buffalo Trace and remain in high demand. Both labels continue to receive the highest acclaim throughout the industry, with numerous awards and accolades.
According to Whisky Shop, only 84,000 bottles of this rare bourbon are released each year. Compare that to a lower-cost whiskey, such as Jim Beam, which releases 84,000,000 bottles each year, and it puts it in perspective. Many of us will never see, let alone taste, a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 23.This bourbon was crafted according to our exclusive family wheated recipe. The smooth, oak flavor blends well with the barrel proof. Selected from barrels in the heart of our Kentucky warehouse, this bourbon has remained untouched for 15 years and unhurried by time.
Julian III took over the business in 1981 after his father passed away. He was 32 years old with a wife and four young children. The premium bourbon business was in a lull, but 90 years ago, Pappy started from the ground up, too.
