Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB), through its Limited-Release Lottery, will award the opportunity to purchase 2,005 bottles of Pappy Van Winkle whiskeys, including packages containing multiple bottles of the very popular, limited-production spirits.
Pennsylvania residents and licensees have until 11:00 PM Saturday, Nov. 10, to opt in to one or more of the drawings by visiting the Limited-Release Lottery web page at www.FineWineAndGoodSpirits.com, which can be found under the “Events” tab.
These Kentucky whiskeys, produced by Pappy Van Winkle’s grandson using recipes dating back three generations, are among the most sought after in the world. Since 2002, the Van Winkle bourbons have been produced at the Buffalo Trace distillery, enabling the Old Rip Van Winkle distillery the ability to increase production while still ensuring strict standards for quality. Wine Enthusiast magazine and the World Spirits Championship have rated the 20-year-old bourbon 99 out of 100.
For 2018, the PLCB is again offering multi-bottle packages of Pappy Van Winkle bourbons displayed in custom-made wooden boxes.
