The Limited Edition Authentic 20 Year Pappy Barrel Head, pricing at $355, is another high flying whiskey accessory in the same vein as the Pappy Van Winkle Signature Gift Set unveiled earlier this year. In the case of the barrel head what you are getting is a specialty item limited to 60 each year that’s been restored after having been popped off a dumped barrel.

The barrel heads are said to be “hand wood burned, backed with felt and reinforced” to make sure each one remains a solid piece of art you can hang on the wall courtesy of a provided wall hanger. It can also, of course, be used as a cocktail tray to serve your Van Winkle whiskey on should you have a bottle sitting around. Each one is signed by Julian Van Winkle himself.
