Pappy Van Winkle 23 Year / Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2016 https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/pappy-van-winkle-23-year-yamazaki-sherry-cask-2016/ Mon, 12 Sep 2016 01:43:19 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=16485 20160905_125942

For those who are interested, we are going to have a silent Auction (for 5 days only) on a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 23 year old bourbon as well as a Yamazaki 2016 Sherry Cask. As many of you know both of these highly rated sought after whiskeys are becoming increasingly harder to find. (Bids will be taken starting Monday Sept 12th through Friday September 16th)

Note: This is a completely different event from our whiskey week which will still take place late November. (will post when details on that event when avail)

We will be selling these bottles at MSRP. 100% of anything that is over MSRP will be given to charity (Dana Farber Cancer research). Bids can be sent to RedstoneLiquors@live.com with Auction Bid in the subject line. You will get an email back confirming your bid but not with a chance to counter. We don’t want and will not start a bidding war so please submit your best and final. Answers will not be given for questions about anyone else’s bid or how many bids are received. So please do not ask.

Bids will start at MSRP which are listed below:

Pappy Van Winkle 23 year (2015): $261.99

This very rare, limited edition bourbon takes generations of distilling know-how to produce. Only the most careful and expensive distilling method can be used to create a whiskey as special as this one. Each barrel ages for 23 years and is carefully selected from the heart of the warehouse.

The Yamazaki Sherry Cask 2016 edition: $314.99

With the 2013 release having been named World Whisky of the Year in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2015, this is a hugely anticipated release of Sherried Japanese whisky. Just 5,000 of these sought-after bottles will be available worldwide.

Thank you as always and we look forward to raising money for a good cause.

Cheers!
