Incredible from start to finish. Strong oak flavors dominate, but balanced by dark chocolate and a slight cherry sweetness. A bourbon for special moments.

Van Winkle 13 Year Old Rye is a perfect balance of spicy and sweet, youth and age. The rye spice fades into bourbon-like sweetness, leaving a lasting impression. Despite being hard to find, it’s one of the best ryes money can buy.
Jacob Anthony –
The deep, brooding fruit flavors with wood and rye elements are powerful but balanced. This is one of the most unique rye profiles, with a long-lasting finish that lingers. It’s truly a mysterious and delicious rye.
Benancio –
On first sips, it feels a bit hot but quickly smoothens. The toasty oak, vanilla, maple sweetness, and rye grain spiciness come together beautifully for a long and deep finish.

This whiskey’s toasty vanilla oak flavors have captivated me. After drinking it, I found it hard to go back to single malts. Its sweetness and complexity linger long after the last sip.

Van Winkle 13 Year Rye offers an inviting nose of caramel and vanilla, with black pepper and cinnamon spice dominating the palate. The smooth, sweet finish keeps you coming back for more.

The blend of youthful rye spice with well-aged bourbon-like sweetness is incredible. It’s a rare find but worth every dollar if you can grab it below $150. One of the top ryes I’ve tasted.

On the nose, it’s full of dark fruits and a slight citrus note. The palate is rich with wood and rye flavors, and the long finish makes it a memorable experience. Definitely a must-try for rye lovers.

With 13 years of aging, this rye has reached perfection. It’s complex, with hints of vanilla and spice. A smooth, warm finish makes it one of the best premium ryes available.”
