TRIPLE THE WOMAN-POWER
Pappy & Company, owned and operated by triplets Louise Van Winkle Breen, Carrie Van Winkle Greener, and Chenault Van Winkle James, is a family business rooted in heritage, creativity, and style. Inspired by their legacy as fourth-generation descendants of bourbon legend Pappy Van Winkle, the sisters established the brand to celebrate their family’s rich history. For the past 10 years, Pappy & Company has crafted a unique collection of heritage-inspired products, ranging from barrel-aged foods and premium cigars to clothing, accessories, and home goods. Each product embodies their love for family, tradition, and the joy of bringing people together.

BUILDING ON THEIR BOOTSTRAPS
