Van winkle special reserve 12yr
90.4 proof
Van Winkle Special Reserve is the perfect combination of age and proof.
This sweet, full-bodied whiskey has been described by some as “nectar.”
The 12 years of aging and medium proof seem to be just right in creating a very pleasant drink of whiskey.
This fine bourbon can compete with any excellent cognac as an after-dinner drink.
The overall impression is rich and deep.
Brilliant amber-orange color.
Smell luscious, complex toffee.
Taste a round, supple entry, leading to a dry, expansive, medium body.
Enjoy notes of caramel, nuts, and brown spices with a lengthy, enveloping finish.
It’s an outrageously smooth and decadent bourbon.
