Van Winkle Family Reserve 14 Year Old 90.4 Proof 1970 (1 Bottle 75cl)

Van Winkle Family Reserve 14 Year Old 90.4 Proof 1970

Distilled on February 23rd 1970, bottled in December 1984 by Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery, Lawrenceburg, KY, bottle #A101, good level, red wax capsule very small air bubble , top half of front label scuffed and damaged, missing original neck tag

The liquid in this bottle was distilled in 1970, making it some of the last whiskey made by the Van Winkles at Stitzel-Weller before they were forced to sell it in 1972. Julian Van Winkle II retained the rights to buy barrels from the distillery, as did his son, who took over after his father died. Julian Van Winkle III opened the Old Commonwealth distillery in 1983 as a bottling facility, and this is one of the first whiskeys he produced under his family name – making it a true historical gem.

1 bottle 75cl (no original packaging)
