Some bottles are rare.
This one has a story.
Pappy Van Winkle is already released in tiny quantities each year — that’s part of the mystique. But in 2017, something unusual happened at the bottling line: a small number of Pappy 15-Year bottles went out with a red foil top instead of the traditional black. It wasn’t intentional, and once it was discovered, the mistake was corrected.
That limited batch became known as the “Santa Edition.” A standard 2017 Pappy 15-Year fetches about $2,250, but the elusive “Santa” edition adds another $500 — and serious bragging rights.
Collectors hunt for them. Most end up hidden away in private collections.
For this year’s holiday fundraiser, we’re putting one of those bottles in someone’s hands — all to support the mission of 4 Families. Every ticket helps provide clarity, stability, and real support for parents and children working toward a healthier future.
A rare bottle.
A real impact.
