Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Year Old, commonly known as “Lot B,” is one of the most sought-after wheated bourbons in the world. Aged twelve years and crafted with a wheat-forward mash bill, this legendary expression delivers remarkable smoothness, layered depth, and refined sweetness.
Often considered the elegant middle ground in the Van Winkle lineup, Lot B balances extended aging with approachability, offering rich flavor without overwhelming oak intensity. It’s a true collector’s bottle and a prized addition to any serious bourbon lineup.
Best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate its craftsmanship and character.

Tasting Notes
Lush caramel and honey with layers of vanilla and toasted oak. Hints of dried fruit, baking spice, and subtle chocolate lead into a long, silky, and beautifully balanced finish.
