Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Old 2017
Sitting squarely in the middle of the Van Winkle family lineup, Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Lot B is an all-around outstanding pour. For many, this bottle rests at the ideal intersection of age and strength. Each sip of this bourbon, otherwise known as Pappy 12 Year, delivers waves of decadent toffee, freshly toasted nuts, and soothing brown spices. The long, lingering finish can compete with any excellent cognac, making Van Winkle 12 Year Special Reserve Lot B a perfect after-dinner drink.
“Elegant, stately … balanced beautifully”

A well-balanced bourbon with notes of vanilla, cherries, and soft spice. The low proof makes it accessible but leaves it feeling a bit underwhelming for experienced bourbon drinkers.
Whiskey Advocate –
Vanilla, cinnamon, and caramel on the nose with a delicate, mellow palate. The finish offers soft spices, but the low proof might disappoint those looking for a more robust flavor.
Brad –
Tastes older than 12 years with pronounced oak and sweet berry jam flavors. Good balance, but might be too mellow for some.
Lillian –
Van Winkle 12 Lot B is smooth and enjoyable, with light sweetness and subtle spices, but not worth the high price on the secondary market.
Annie –
Great for sipping with mild toffee and caramel notes. Soft finish, not too spicy, but could use more depth.
Sherri –
Subdued vanilla and oak on the nose with a hint of cherries and wood varnish. A smooth finish, but too mellow for me.
Whiskey Hunter –
A pleasant, well-balanced bourbon. Smooth caramel and nutmeg with a subtle oak finish. Not overly exciting, but enjoyable
Whiskey Society Enthusiast –
The flavors are good, but it’s a bit light for my taste. I would have preferred something with more depth and complexity.
Nathan P. –
Smooth, easy-drinking bourbon with mild spice and sweetness. Perfect for those who like a softer touch.
