Are you still obsessively scouring liquor store shelves and dusty crannies of the internet in the eternal hunt for bottles of Pappy Van Winkle? If so, I’ve got a bourbon to tell you about—Very Olde St. Nick, which could just be the next Pappy and piss off a new generation of whiskey fans...Robb Report
The Olde St. Nick brand is shrouded in mystery. Known only to the most diehard whiskey enthusiasts as a bottler of well-aged whiskeys sourced from the likes of the fabled Stitzel-Weller Distillery, Heaven Hill, and Willett, and sold almost exclusively in Japan, in the last couple years Olde St. Nick has made a shift to offering their tiny batches in other markets.
You’ve heard about it, read about it, and maybe even been fortunate enough to taste some over the years, but when was the last time you were able to lay your hands on a bottle of Very Olde St Nick Rare Bourbon and Whiskey? A sought after brand, always produced in small lots. Very Olde St Nick is known for bourbons and whiskey of exceptional quality. It has been almost impossible to find any releases of Very Olde St Nick and Olde St Nick products the past few years, and today those highly coveted bottles sell for hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars, and are traded among those who know fine spirits. Stocks disappear as fast as they are released, scooped up by global bourbon and whiskey fanatics.
