Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Aged Pure Maple Syrup

Pappy Van Winkle Barrel Aged Pure Maple Syrup

In 1893, Julian Pappy Van Winkle Sr. began working as a traveling salesman for the W.L. Weller & Sons Company in Louisville, Kentucky. Weller & Sons was a liquor wholesaler and sold bourbon under various labels, including Old Fitzgerald and Rebel Yell. After the turn of the century, Van Winkle purchased Weller & Sons Co., together with the Stitzel Distillery (the distillery produced most of the bourbons sold by the wholesaler), and merged the two companies together. While Prohibition forced most distilleries to close their doors soon thereafter, Van Winkle was granted a license to continue operating his distillery and producing whiskey for medicinal purposes. By the time of his death in 1966 (at the age of 91), Van Winkle was the oldest active distiller in the country. Pappy & Company was founded by Pappy's three great-granddaughters who found their own way of continuing the legend's legacy. They have a line of bourbon-inspired products that pay tribute to their great-grandfather's heritage. Their products include barware, premium cigars, unique gifts, and apparel, among others. Their award-winning maple syrup is the Pappy Van Winkle Barrel-Aged Pure Maple Syrup. Crafted in partnership with Bissel Maple Farm, the syrup is aged in Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels and is the perfect match for pancakes, waffles, or cocktails like the old fashioned and Manhattan.
