Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year, 90 Proof

A luscious hint of caramel flavor enhances this fine hand-crafted bourbon. The 10 full years of aging combine nicely with its 90 proof. Old Rip Van Winkle has a “rich, plush texture” (Tastings.com).

Old Rip Van Winkle10 Year, 107 Proof

Bottled as close to barrel proof as possible. We add just a splash of our Kentucky lime-stone water when emptying the barrels for bottling, making this whiskey as smooth as any you will find. A delightful 107 barrel proof makes it just right.
