Very Olde St. Nick Immaculata Ancient Cask Bourbon

Unleash a bourbon legend with Very Olde St. Nick Immaculata Ancient Cask Bourbon. From Preservation Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky, this 15-year-old cask-strength beast clocks in at 118.1 proof, blending stocks with whispers of 15-year-old barrels. No age statement, just pure, unfiltered swagger—non-chill filtered to keep every bold flavor intact. It’s a small-batch titan, sourced from Kentucky and Indiana, with a richness that hits like a velvet hammer. Sip it neat to savor the depth, or let it roar in a cocktail.

Nose: A bouquet of berries, including raspberry jam, tart cranberries, and dark cherries, evolving into baking spices like cinnamon and walnuts, with mature oak tucked away.

Palate: Starts with light honey and brown sugar or caramel, hints of berry, followed by cherry wood and oak, along with cocoa and tobacco notes.

Finish: Medium to long duration, with lingering tobacco and baking spices, with sweetness harder to find at the finish

This bourbon pairs excellently with grilled meats, particularly smoked ribs or brisket, enhancing the savory flavors. It also complements dark chocolate desserts, balancing sweetness with its rich profile. For a savory option, try it alongside aged cheeses to appreciate the contrast between creamy textures and the bourbon's depth.
