Old Rip Van Winkle 12 Year Old Special Reserve Lot B Bourbon

Old Rip Van Winkle 12 Year Old Special Reserve, commonly referred to as "Lot B," is a distinguished Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey produced by the Sazerac Company at its Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. This wheated bourbon is aged for 12 years and bottled at 90.4 proof (45.2% ABV), offering a harmonious balance of age and strength. 

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Inviting aromas of dried mango, cocoa, fruit, and spiced peach. 

• Palate: Flavors of honey, oak, and tobacco dance on the palate, creating a rich and deep profile. 

• Finish: Balanced and dry, with a lingering tingle that adds to its refined character.

This bourbon has been described as "nectar" by enthusiasts and is noted for its sweet, full-bodied nature. Its smoothness and complexity make it a compelling choice for both connoisseurs and those new to fine bourbons.
