As fourth generation bourbon making Van Winkles, sisters Carrie, Louise, and Chenault are celebrating their family legacy through bourbon-inspired products. They often seek out long-standing American family business or master crafters to partner with and create new time-honored products. From barrel-aged maple syrup to handcrafted home goods, all of their products are made with the same dedication to taste, quality and style that their great grandfather’s original vision embodied.

This is the little overachiever that just keeps racking up awards! One taste though and you’ll approve our bragging rights. After all, our syrup has earned them.
Our Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon Barrel Aged Pure Maple Syrup was one of the first products we made, and it was golden right out of the gate. We partner with Bissel Maple Farm, another small family-owned company based in Jefferson, Ohio, who shares our same dedication to quality and the result is the perfect blend of flavors - bursting with vanilla, oak, butter and just the right hint of bourbon.
Aged in Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrels this powerhouse syrup is perfect for pancakes but has a busy life beyond Sunday morning in some of our favorite cocktails and recipes.
Check out this video from Chef Tyler Florence where he reviews our Barrel-Aged Pure Maple Syrup and says, "No joke one of the best things I’ve tasted in a long time. Knock your socks off blow away flavor."
