Bourbon Whiskey, 'Old Man Winter'

• Small batch Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey produced by Preservation Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky
• A blend of Preservation wheated bourbon and contract-distilled high-corn bourbon from an undisclosed Kentucky distillery; mash bills undisclosed
• Aged 6–9 years in new American oak barrels with varying toast and char levels; non-age statement
• Proofed with water from the estate’s limestone-fed aquifer
• Blended in micro-batches of 1–3 barrels
• Aromas of cherry skin, sun-faded paper, and sugar icing lead to white pepper, dried apricot, and oxidized lemon
• Non-chill filtered; 54.9% ABV

Composed for the tried-and-true fans of a “dusty” bourbon profile, Old Man Winter capitalizes on a four-grain blend and an increased age range to create a simultaneously sharp yet ethereal flavor.
