12-year-old 12y

About

Van Winkle's 12-year-old bourbon is a classic Kentucky Straight Bourbon produced at Buffalo Trace, renowned for its refined balance and accessibility. This wheated bourbon showcases the characteristic smoothness and elegance the brand is celebrated for, with a rich, almost voluptuous texture that makes an immediate impression. The nose reveals a delicate harmony of sweet fruit and vanilla notes, with cherry and honey arriving alongside rich oak tones. On the palate, a silky combination of vanilla and caramel dominates, followed by subtle tobacco notes that add dry sophistication. The finish is smooth and lingering, with echoes of oak and sweet fruit that pleasantly persist.
