Hi, are you at least AGED 21 years?

Finding
Pappy

We only produced so much whiskey 20 plus years ago, so our quantities are limited. Just like you, we wish we had more to share. We have put some ideas together on how to find and discover our whiskies.

FIND IT THE
RIGHT WAY

We understand that finding Old Rip Van Winkle products can be a thrilling quest for bourbon enthusiasts. While it’s true that our bourbon isn’t readily available on every shelf, there are interesting and rewarding ways to embark on this journey.

Befriend your local liquor store. Stay in the know with your local store to learn about release dates.

Join a raffle. Many states and retailers conduct raffles and lotteries. Keep an eye out for announcements.

Explore bourbon events. Attend bourbon-related events and festivals. We like to give samples at food & wine festivals.

Stay informed. Follow our official social channels, it’s where we keep our most up to date release information.
