Twitter API retrieve tweets with search_query for time range (more than year past)

Is there a way to collect tweets that match specific keyword, but are more than year old date range? I know you can collect tweet with search query on stream api, but I would like to grab tweets that are more than 1 year old, and also would like to specify the date range.

From the Twitter Search Documentation.

The Twitter Search API searches against a sampling of recent Tweets published in the past 7 days.

So, you can't grab historic data via the API.

You can specify date ranges using until:2015-12-21 as part of your query.
