Van Winkle Family Reserve Bourbon Distilled 1970 Bottled 1984 #A235

Van Winkle Family Reserve Bourbon, Distilled 1970, Bottled 1984, Bottle #A235 — a Stitzel-Weller era wheated bourbon from the Van Winkle family's independent bottling operation, bottled 14 years after distillation at the same Louisville distillery that produced the original Pappy Van Winkle-era expressions.

The 1970 distillate and 1984 bottling places this in the Van Winkle family's independent era — wheated bourbon from Stitzel-Weller stocks bottled before the modern ORVW/Pappy Van Winkle program began. Bottle #A235 joins the other 1970-distilled, 1984-bottled expressions in the Wooden Cork collection (including #581, #715, #881, #942, and #1109), each individually numbered and representing the same rare production year.
