For the past few years, we’ve introduced a T-shirt exclusively to the crowd that attends our hometown, Louisville, KY Bourbon & Beyond Music & Bourbon Festival. We select a design that embodies the nature of the festival and invites the same spirit of an event dedicated to the unique intersection of music, bourbon and cigars. This year we went to the archives - the Old Rip Van Winkle archives that is - and pulled out a favorite label that both honors Pappy’s original promise of quality and the long standing tradition of enjoying life!

Our Bottled in Bond T-shirt does just that. Introducing the Bottled in Bond design to the Bourbon & Beyond crowd - we knew we’d found the right combination. Bottled in Bond is a whiskey term that designates a required length of time for aging and demands adherence to high quality standards. Playfully invoking the folklore of Rip Van Winkle, who falls asleep for twenty years in the woods, just like our iconic bourbon, this T-shirt is a fun, vintage design that celebrates both. 

The colorful retro label is featured on a soft, ring spun 100% cotton T-shirt with a relaxed fit. Garment dyed for that perfectly “broken in” feeling, this comfort tee is perfect for all day wear (like say, at a music festival), to show your Pappy pride. 

Very little shrinkage if any so size accordingly.
