A highly sought after whisky, All of the Van Winkles whiskey production currently takes place at Buffalo Trace under the same strict guidelines the family has previously followed in order to produce a superior quality product. The 13 Year Old Family Reserve Rye is made with corn, wheat and barley to give the bourbon a smoother, softer taste. This has aged beautifully and gracefully and has developed into a gorgeous dram.   Nose: Dry, a little spicy, very warm Palate: A waxy texture, rolls across the palate, smooth and chocolaty Finish:  Spicy, medium length, warms the soul and the mind
