Whether enjoyed during a quiet evening at home, shared among friends, or presented as a distinguished gift, Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year Bourbon elevates any moment with its refined character and approachable elegance.
Very distinct candied cherry sweetness permeates the glass as soon as I touch my nose to it. There’s a creamy nose-feel that carries caramel, walnut, and confectioners sugar. Silky, creamy, candy sweetness all through this glass… It’s really quite lovely. After a bit of time in the glass I find ripe pear, white linen and milk chocolate. It’s so, so bright and quite permeating. It breaths into the chest like a cool breeze. On deeper inhales a touch of pepper, leather and oak can definitely be found but they are subtle. On finding no further complexities, I believe it is time for a sip!
