Very Olde St Nick Lot 12 Ancient Cask Bourbon / KBD

TheVery Olde St Nickbrand is owned by InterBev, a subsidiary of Allied Lomar in California, who’s other products include Rare Perfection and Wattie Boone. Its president, Marci Palatella has been sourcing barrels and bottling them for several decades. She was Julian Van Winkle III’s agent in the Japanese market in the 1980 and 1990s, and devised the Very Olde St Nick brand to capitalise on the Japanese demand for well-aged bourbon, which fortuitously was not popular in the US. Her first bottles were produced for her by Van Winkle at his Old Commonwealth bottling facility in the late 1980s, and production was moved to Evan Kulsveen’s Kentucky Bournbon Distillers who bottled Olde St. Nick from the 1990s to early 2000s at Willett

This is a bottling from the later KBD era.
