Pappy Van Winkle, Van Winkle Family Reserve, 13 Years, Rye

Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye 13 Year Old is one of the most coveted American ryes, aged well beyond typical rye whiskies for depth and refinement. Aromas of caramel, vanilla and dark fruit are lifted by mint, dill seed and assertive rye spice, with underlying oak and tobacco notes. The palate is rich yet focused, combining sweet toffee and dried fruit with powerful rye grain, pepper and herbs, all carried by a silky texture and a very long, warming finish. Bottled in small quantities and highly allocated, it is a benchmark sipping rye for serious collectors.
