Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve 20 Years Old 2007 100% Stitzel-Weller
Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve 20 Years Old 2007 100% Stitzel-Weller
Description
Pappy Van Winkle’s Family Reserve 20 Year Old 2007 — the most collector-significant vintage of Pappy 20 in modern memory, sourced from the original Stitzel-Weller wheated bourbon stock. By the late 2000s the Stitzel-Weller-distilled Pappy releases had become the benchmark vintages of the brand, and the 2007 expression sits squarely in that window.
Pappy Van Winkle began his career as a traveling salesman and rose to lead the Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Louisville, where his wheated bourbon recipe established the modern category. After Stitzel-Weller closed and the Van Winkle family partnered with Buffalo Trace in 2002, releases continued under Pappy’s original recipe. The 2007 vintage is one of the last fully Stitzel-Weller-distilled Pappy 20 releases, making it among the most sought-after expressions in American whiskey collecting.
