The Very Olde St Nick brand has long been a cult favorite. Initially bottled by Julian Van Winkle and subsequently by the Willett Family, VOSN now has its very own home in Bardstown - The Preservation Distillery. Of course, this old rye whiskey wasn't distilled there, but drawn from the brands oldest stocks. The distillery is committed to producing whiskey the old way and sources it's grains from local farms, mills on-site and always sour mashes.

There's no way of knowing just where this special old rye came from, but it's widely considered one of the best bottles of rye coming out of Kentucky and the first time we've ever been able to sell this incredible brand stateside. How they've secured these great old ryes remains a mystery, but what's not a secret is how quickly they'll sell out. Don't miss it.

Tasting notes

Nose: The nose opens with a kick of alcohol, before giving earthy baking spices, white pepper, young rye grain, a touch of dried fruit, deep vegetal notes, and charred oak. As you keep nosing deep caramel and faint fresh strawberry notes also emerge.

Palate: The palate opens viscous with notes of caramelized nuts, warm baking spices, tart green apples, and a wave of peppery spice that washes across the palate and fades to charred oak, dark chocolate, dried red fruits, deep herbaceous notes, and lingering spice.

Finish: The finish opens sweet with some lingering pepper spice from the palate fading to an aftertaste of earthy baking spices and tannic oak that dries up the inside of the cheeks.
