Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year “A perfect combination of age and proof. The 12 years of aging and medium proof of 90.4 seem to be just right in creating a very pleasant drink of whiskey.
This fine bourbon can compete with any excellent cognac as an after-dinner drink.” - Paul Pacult
TASTING NOTES: Highlighted by light aromas of dried mango, cocoa, fruit and spiced peach. Flavors of honey, oak and tobacco dance on the pallet. The finish is balanced and dry, with a lingering tingle.
