Old Rip Van Winkle 25 Year Old Bourbon – 2017 Limited Edition Crystal Decanter – High Fill – 750ml
An extraordinary piece of American whiskey history and one of the rarest releases ever produced under the Van Winkle name.
The Old Rip Van Winkle 25 Year Old Bourbon represents the pinnacle of the legendary Van Winkle collection. Released in 2017 as a one-time offering of just 710 individually numbered decanters worldwide, this exceptionally rare bourbon was distilled in 1989 at the historic Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky.
Aged for 25 years, this remarkable Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was selected from just 11 barrels, preserving a piece of the original Stitzel-Weller legacy that helped establish Van Winkle as one of the most coveted names in American whiskey.
Bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV), the bourbon is presented in an exquisite, handcrafted Glencairn crystal decanter, housed in a custom wooden presentation box. Every detail reflects the significance of this historic release.
Collector’s Highlight – High Fill Level
This particular decanter features a desirable high fill level, an especially important characteristic for collectors seeking exceptional examples of rare, aged whiskey.
With only 710 decanters originally produced and an increasingly limited number remaining in private collections, the Old Rip Van Winkle 25 Year stands among the most sought-after modern American bourbon releases.
