Old Rip Van Winkle is a distinguished bourbon whiskey crafted at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Established in 1953 by Julian Van Winkle, Sr.—grandson of Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr., a founding figure of Buffalo Trace—the brand carries a rich legacy of craftsmanship and tradition.
The name "Old Rip Van Winkle" pays homage to the title character in Washington Irving’s classic tale. In the story, Rip Van Winkle, a Dutch-American farmer, falls into a 20-year slumber in the Catskill Mountains. Upon waking, he discovers a world transformed and himself aged into an old man, a narrative that echoes the passage of time and enduring quality.
