Old Rip Van Winkle's 10 Year Bourbon
Aged for ten years, Old Rip Van Winkle delivers the signature style of Van Winkle, just a splash away from cask strength. Sweet, spicy, and caramel-nut-fudge aromas. The palate is fruity, medium-to full-bodied with intense dried fruit and toasted nutty notes. The finish is long, bold and peppery, followed by floral honey and charred barrel flavors. A must-have for serious bourbon collectors!

A Carolina Rice Plantation of the Fifties
Signed first edition of A Carolina Rice Plantation of the Fifties by Alice Ravenel Huger Smith, one of Charleston's most important 20th Century artists.  Smith (July 14, 1876 - February 3, 1958) was one of the leading figures in the so-called Charleston Renaissance. The book is illustrated with 30 watercolor plates that now make up the Rice Plantation Series displayed at the Gibbes Museum of Art.
West Fraser Framed Print & Books
9" x 12" framed print of West Fraser's painting Cloudy Day Regatta. Includes two beautiful books titled, Charleston in My Time: The Paintings of West Fraser and Painting the Southern Coast, The Art of West Fraser.

West Fraser was born in Savannah, Ga. in 1955, came of age on Hilton Head Island and is a true “Son of The Lowcountry."  One of the leading American artists in the representational and plein air tradition, he has built his career on richly painted, atmospheric vistas of cities, coasts, and the landscape throughout the United States and internationally—from the pristine Sea Islands of South Carolina and Georgia, to the hill towns of Tuscany. An avid traveler, he has painted throughout the Caribbean, Central America, Europe and Scandinavia. Yet his passion always draws him back to the marshes and landscape of his beloved Georgia and South Carolina Coast.

Pappy Van Winkle Special Reserve 12 Years Old Lot B
This rare Van Winkle Special Reserve is the perfect combination of age and proof. The sweet, full bodied whiskey has been described by some as 'nectar.' We agree! The 12 years of aging and medium proof of 90.4 seem to be just right in creating a very pleasant drink of whiskey. This fine bourbon can compete with any excellent cognac as an after-dinner drink. The overall impression is rich and deep.
