Whisky Advocate: Pappy Van Winkle 2017 Release Starts This Month

The 2017 release of the most coveted whiskies in the world has arrived: the annual allocation of Pappy Van Winkle and Old Rip Van Winkle will be available for sale starting this month, although the exact timing will vary by state and you’ll have a tough time finding them on the shelf at most stores anyway. Buffalo Trace doesn’t release the number of bottles available, but the distillery noted in a press release that “yields are a bit higher” for the 10-, 15-, and 23-year-old Bourbons. Due to a gap in inventory, there won’t be a Van Winkle 13-year-old rye available this year. Whisky Advocate has the full story.
