Whiskey under the sign Van Winkle for a long time can bring to collectors and fans of the brand of headache and palpitations. Reasons, there's a few. Firstly, in some circles of the family Van Winkle di imported bourbons are considered the best in the world (constantly and forever). Secondly, endorses it one of the most aristocratic di imported dynasty bourbonowych of Kentucky - after the famous Proctor Julian "Pappy", as the head of the famous The Stitzel-Weller Distillery, wore the name Van Winkle. Thirdly, family launches annually a very limited number of bottles of your collection of whiskey (bourbon and rye), causing its rapid deficit di imported in the primary market (shops in the U.S. are selling Van winkli on records!) And huge moments of prices on the secondary market (sometimes not even to explain). What is the essence of the brand Van Winkle? I think I will devote more and more fascinating topic of one of my next articles in the monthly "Markets Alcoholic".
But in the end this is not what I write today. I knew that people di imported can do a lot for your beloved brand, but I did not think so much and it literally. Here is American sources have reported the brazen theft of 68 3 boxes of bottled whiskey Van Winkle for a total of $ 26,000 di imported (the primary market). di imported The boxes, stolen straight from magazines distillery Buffalo Trace (which has signed a joint venture agreement for the production of whiskey Van Winkle) included brands such as Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve 20yo (195 bottles) and Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye 13yo (9 bottles) . According to investigators access di imported to these boxes were about 50 people, which naturally included in the circle of suspects. Although security cameras dotted with Buffalo Trace for now but do not know who could commit this rather daring theft. Perhaps di imported it was not, however, individual event and the dealings of at least several months. I promise that I will follow the fate of this incredible story and inform you about the finale (whatever it was).
Yes, it is a very interesting story. According to a blogger a chance to identify those bottles .. suffice if BT provided the information about the code bottles. Each has a unique code, after all, apart from the UPC that shows where and when the bottle was filled with: http://www.bourbonblog.com/blog/2013/10/18/could-you-spot-the-stolen-pappy/ By the way, when I learned about these codes are checked my bottle. In one, I found no problem -> 2010. The second di imported was not this code .. I was looking for a long time. It turned out, however, that it is, but the label and I had to highlight the bottle on the other hand, to see K1700809: 51 -> 2008. Math says that 2008 - 15 = 1993, one year after the closing of Stitzel-Weller. Can I therefore assume that my bottle of '08 was filled with the juice of this legendary distillery? di imported The information that I found on various websites promote my theory .. "Based on statements made by the Van Winkles a few years ago, it sounds as if they made a big (and possibly final) run of Pappy 15 bottles from Stitzel Weller in 2009 That held them through the spring 2011 release." I would like to believe that, despite the fact that I have a 15yo who was not bottled by hand by the heirs of Van Winkle, in the middle of something legendary. I had this bottle replaced by a flaw on the label. In DW have one and have them scoffed, but in this situation .. no way ;-) What about the fact that I get a bottle in immaculate condition, since it will be the 2011. No podepnę this to my theory .. :-) Just out of curiosity, I ask where she was bottled your 23YO? PS. Blantonsy arrived! This gold is not enough, it tasted deliciously, this is probably the prettiest glass in the shoulder. Expect di imported delivery :-) Greetings / TF Reply Delete
I see that someone comes by here "phenomenon Van Winkle" :) But seriously, it is with these flaszkami from Van Winklów is not a simple matter. di imported Great collection of sale Van Winkle can be traced to at least three reasons: 1 Van Winkle name still inspires di imported bourbon whiskey enthusiasts emotions. 2 Supply collection is very limited di imported and it deliberately. 3 So really never quite know what is in a particular flaszce Van Winkle and this is also a deliberate action. The third point I think the key here. Well, (I hope you forgive me now) in this way creates a kind of magic, which seems to give up a lot of fans american whiskey. They will find even the shadow probable theory, supposedly it is in their bottle concealed something special. Unfortunately, ever so 100% they will not be sure whether they are right or not. But that's what makes it around Van Winkle whiskey spirit hovers anything di imported else, just like "magic" to which I have attitude, to put it mildly, stingy. And if so, then I have this magic little disenchant. Giving the age on the label (and not only in the case of whiskey Van Winkle), the planted
