Old Rip Van Winkle

Handmade 90 Proof 10 Year Old Bourbon (Squat Bottle) 750ml

Bottle size

Introduced to the market for the first time way back in 1980 by Julian Van Winkle III, this rare and exceptionally collectible squat bottle iteration of Old Rip Van Winkle Handmade 90 Proof 10 year old Bourbon is a sweet, wheat-recipe bourbon whiskey. Estimated to have been eventually bottled by Buffalo Trace in the early 2000s, the Handmade 10 Year Bourbon is one of the original Old Rip Van Winkle brands and is prized for its mild, welcoming nose and palate. This medium to full-bodied dram features aromatic notes of caramel, roasted nuts, and vanilla along with layers of dried fruit, bold spice, and florally honey on the tongue. Balanced, pristinely aged, and superbly crafted, the Old Rip Van Winkle Handmade 10 year old 90 Proof Bourbon is a perfect introduction or an exemplary reminder of what a classic bourbon-tasting experience should be!…

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.

This isn't a similar survey of the current Old Tear Van Winkle 10yo this one is from a 1990's jug or mid 2000's; the state of the container is really extraordinary rectangular while the current jug is kinda adjusted". The abv of this one is the very same 53.5%abv however the smells and flavors are unique. Which one is better? Lets see.... On the button: Metalic; Copper note commonplace of Pappy's whiskeys. Banana Prunes. Stinky metal. Steel. Slight cherry notes. Vanilla; After first taste spent matches and Earthy colored sugar notes show up. Exceptionally intriguing. On the sense of taste: Banana Zest pepper Vanilla yet extremely Refined. Consuming Roughage smoke. Persistent flavor is excelent. Vanilla Banana split frozen yogurt. Flavors like Wasabi and Metalic notes. By and large this is additionally an incredible whiskey bourbon yet in contrast with the current one is somewhat unique and I incline toward the one from this days. 97 out of 100 incredible bourbon."
