Life is short. Open the good stuff. New notes on OLD RIP VAN WINKLE 10 YEAR. Tap that πŸ”— IN BIO for deets on this unfortunately overhyped bourbon, and reflections on the things that last. Cheers! I got out of the bunkering habit a while ago but I’m so glad I had the good sense to get a back up of this one. Thompson Brothers are doing great things to make blends cool again, and this bottle is an excellent example. Great neat and makes a killer Penicillin cocktail too. SlΓ‘inte! This one is underrated imo. A solid well-aged bourbon, priced well under what others charge, enjoyable from first pour to last. Cheers!
