A Perfect Marriage of Age & Proof — Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year "Lot B"
Among the most celebrated bourbons in the world, Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Old "Lot B" occupies a rare sweet spot in the Pappy Van Winkle family — old enough to deliver extraordinary complexity, yet bottled at a proof that keeps it silky, balanced, and endlessly approachable. Produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery using the legendary Van Winkle wheat-forward mashbill, Lot B is aged a full 12 years and bottled at 90.4 proof. The result is a bourbon of exceptional richness and refinement — described by enthusiasts as "a perfect combination of age and proof." This is the bottle that turns first-timers into lifelong Pappy devotees.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Roasted nuts, warm caramel, and rolled oats — inviting and deeply comforting
- Palate: Full-bodied and luxurious — dried fruits, sun-kissed stone fruit, honey, brown sugar, and a gentle baking spice
- Finish: Smooth, balanced, and dry with a long, pleasant close — the wheat shines through beautifully
