Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Old 2018
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”

The complexity of fruit, spice, and floral notes makes this a standout rye. The peppercorn heat is gentle, and the fruitiness takes over mid-palate, leading to a satisfying finish.
Katrina –
While the nose is subtle, with hints of bubblegum and licorice, the palate opens up with floral and honey notes. A fantastic rye for those who appreciate nuance.
Katrina –
The finish is where this rye truly shines. It lingers with seasoned oak and a hint of cocoa, offering a long and enjoyable experience.
Cynthia G. –
A light but flavorful rye. The delicate fruit and floral notes make it ideal for slow sipping on warm evenings. It’s refined, elegant, and worth every penny.”
Drew Beard –
Exceptionally balanced with light spice, toffee, and chewy caramel. The finish is long and subtle with a hint of dark cherry. While enjoyable, it lacks the fuller flavor of Weller 12.

Got a bottle of Van Winkle 12 years Lot B for $197. Great pour, especially paired with a cigar. Enjoyed it, but I also like Weller 107.
The Whiskey Shelf –
The nose hits with alcohol, but you get orange marmalade, grapefruit, and honey. The taste is gentler, with citrus, honey, and wood spice. Overall, an enjoyable yet not groundbreaking bourbon.
The Bourbon Culture –
Mellow and sweet, with caramel, berries, and oak. The finish is smooth with lingering fruits and cinnamon. However, it plays it safe and lacks excitement for those who prefer more punch.
