Family Selection 23 Year Old Bourbon Decanter Set 750ml
The first of its kind to be bottled at barrel strength and with only 1,200 sets ever released to the public, this crystal decanter edition of Old Rip Van Winkle's Pappy Van Winkle 23 Year Old Family Selection Bourbon is perhaps the most elusive and enigmatic that the distillery has ever produced. "Asleep Many Years In The Wood", this excruciatingly limited release has rested for 23 long years in American Oak and with just 1,200 bottlings ever released, represents one of the most collectible iterations to emerge from KY. Barreled in the spring of 1986, and personally hand-engraved to commemorate the collection's release, for collectors and connoisseurs - there is not a more coveted bottle of bourbon anywhere in the world. Carefully selected from the lower, cooler floors of the Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery warehouse, and boasting a punchy 114 proof... for a Pappy, this complex oaky blend is second to none and comes beautifully appointed with a luxurious, silky mouthfeel - proving that every month of its 23 years in the barrel has been worth it.

About the brand
Perhaps the most distinctive name in bourbon, Old Rip Van Winkle and its supremely popular 'Pappy' releases have become a culture-defining phenomenon. Passed down through generations of the Van Winkle family for well over 100 years, Old Rip Van Winkle (now distilled by Buffalo Trace) is renowned for its unique preference of wheat rather than rye in the mashbill, a process which has helped it earn cult status and a reputation for producing the smoothest and most complex bourbons in circulation. Released yearly in extremely limited quantities, Old Rip Van Winkle and its acclaimed Pappy Van Winkle line are celebrated by collectors and connoisseurs the world over, and rightly so, no top shelf is complete without one.

There is not a bottle that I have seen anywhere in the world that eclipses this piece of mastery. True, regular Pappy 23 is just as drinkable - but there is something different here. Something invisible and incredible that justifies the extreme
