This bottling of a 19-year-old bourbon by Kentucky Bourbon Distillers was distributed specifically for the Japanese market in the early 2000s by Allied Lomar, California. The whisky was probably distilled at Heaven Hill and bottled by Kentucky Bourbon Distillers at 115,7 us proof.
Very Olde St Nick is a brand of Allied Lomar Inc. from California. Marci Palatella, who managed the Japanese market for Van Winkles for many years, is in charge there. The first bottlings of Allied Lomar therefore also came from there, but they separated at the beginning of the 2000s and since then the whisky has been sourced from Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD), who also run the Willet distillery. Almost all bottlings have in common the type of label with the curved typeface.
Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.
The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.
