Featured in the 1001 whiskies you must try before you die book
"Old rip emphasizes candy flavours like vanilla, caramel and toffee with a little mint and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. Its richness and balance are uncanny. What distinguishes Van Winkle from other wheaters is a very slight touch of citrus that leans toward orange."
The holy grail of American whiskey, with the Stitzel Weller distillery last producing whiskey in 1992 and now made at the Buffalo Trace distillery.
A wheated Bourbon that has more of a Rye like hit for me, but whatever the mash bill, this is one very mouthfilling and complex Bourbon that makes you understand why Bourbon lovers search high and low for it.
