An online auction is offering the full line up of both Pappy Van Winkle and the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection.
Following the devastating losses caused by the tornadoes that tore through the Midwest and South Buffalo Trace Distillery and its 2,300 team mercifully emerged unscathed, although some of its team members experienced tragedy within their extended families.
In order to help raise funds, Buffalo Trace and the Van Winkle family are partnering with Menish Productions on two rare whiskey flights, available online from December 20 at 9am, through to December 23 at 7pm.
Available for bidding are a complete flight of Pappy Van Winkle and a complete flight of Buffalo Trace’s Antique Collection, which includes the 2020 George T. Stagg. All of the whiskeys included are very collectable, and for the first time in its history, the distillery is donating a bottle of each expression from both of the collections to this charitable cause.
