Very Olde St. Nick 12 Year Antique Barrel Lot #01 is a lot-specific mature bourbon aimed at buyers who follow scarce American whiskey labels with strong secondary-market interest. It suits collectors who care about label variation and batch identity as much as straightforward drinking value.
From the Producer
Very Olde St. Nick began in the 1980s as a Japanese-market label, assembled by Norio Kanayama of Japan Import System from mature Kentucky stock at a time when old bourbon barrels sat unwanted in American warehouses. For years the bottling ran alongside the Van Winkle family's own operation, which is why the early lots are collected in the same breath as them. Lot numbering matters here: each lot is its own small bottling, tracked separately by collectors.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Mature oak, caramel and sweet grain, with an aromatic lift from long aging.
- Palate: Smooth entry with classic bourbon sweetness, spice and a firm antique-wood profile.
- Finish: Warming and lingering, with dry spice, mature oak and a lasting bourbon core.
Best For
Allocated-bourbon collectors, American whiskey verticals, display-focused gifting and buyers who specifically track Very Olde St. Nick lot releases.
