Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve 23 Year

Produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, the 23 Year is the crown jewel of the Van Winkle family line — a wheated bourbon aged longer than almost any other in the American tradition. The extra years in new American oak barrels produce extraordinary depth: waves of dark cherry, toasted vanilla, leather, and a finish that lingers for minutes. It has won the Whisky Advocate's Bourbon of the Year multiple times and routinely sells for 10 to 20 times its retail price on the secondary market.
