The Pappy Van Winkle's Complete Collection Bundle brings together all five core wheated bourbon expressions from the Van Winkle family — Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year, Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Lot B, Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve 15, 20, and 23 Year — the definitive single acquisition for Van Winkle collectors and enthusiasts.
All five use the same wheated bourbon recipe that Pappy Van Winkle championed, now produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery under the family partnership. Together they cover 10 to 23 years of maturation, 90.4 to 107 proof, and represent every tier from the accessible Old Rip expressions through the ultra-rare upper Pappy tier. All five are released annually through Buffalo Trace’s fall allocation program in strictly limited quantities — a complete set in a single purchase is among the rarest acquisitions in American whiskey retail.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between all five Van Winkle expressions?
All five use the same wheated mashbill from Buffalo Trace. The 10 Year is 107 proof at near barrel strength — concentrated and intense. The 12 Year Lot B is 90.4 proof — the most balanced and approachable expression. The 15 Year returns to 107 proof with greater complexity — the first to carry the Pappy name. The 20 Year is 90.4 proof with 20 years of oak integration — silky and refined. The 23 Year is 95.6 proof — the rarest, released in the smallest quantities.
Is a complete five-bottle Van Winkle set rare?
Extremely. All five expressions are allocated through Buffalo Trace’s annual fall program and sell out immediately at primary retail. Sourcing all five in a single purchase is one of the rarest accomplishments in American whiskey retail. Wooden Cork ships nationwide when full allocation is available.
