Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Old 2021
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”

Fine to sip, but doesn’t live up to the immense hype. I’ve had it a few times, and I want to like it more, but it’s just okay.
Andy Bell –
The price doesn’t justify the experience for me. It’s good, but knowing some pay $1,000 makes me cringe. At least I can cross it off my bucket list.
Kevin –
One of the finest sipping whiskies I’ve purchased. Sublime nose and finish, one of life’s great pleasures for whiskey lovers.

Did a blind taste test against Midwinter Night Dram and Willett, and this came second every time. Not worth the high price in my opinion.

It was worth the wait, and I’m glad to have tried it. I’d give it 4/5. I hope to find another bottle soon.”
Joe –
Good luck finding this at retail price. It’s a solid whiskey, but not worth the inflated secondary market price.
Candace Smith –
The whiskey lives up to its legacy, but at retail prices only. I can’t justify paying more for it.
Larry Perea –
Van Winkle 12 Year Lot B is rich, but its complexity falls short of expectations for the price.
