The Immaculata 2026 reflects that approach: a multi-aged blend that pairs the deep oak and tannin of a 19-year base with the rounded sweetness of a wheated component and the spice backbone of a high-rye component, presented unfiltered at full cask strength. With only 13 barrels in the batch, it sits among the brand's rarer recent expressions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep oak char, vanilla bean, caramelized brown sugar, dried dark fruits, leather, and tobacco leaf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich caramel, baking spices, cinnamon bark, dark chocolate, toasted nuts, maple syrup, and barrel tannins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and warming with lingering oak, sweet vanilla, black pepper, dried fruit, and gentle heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Preservation Distillery, Bardstown, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey — Cask Strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19-year base, 8-year wheated pot-distilled, 10-year high-rye Kentucky bourbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 59.05% (118.1 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBatch Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 barrels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is in the Immaculata 2026 blend?\u003c\/strong\u003e A 19-year Kentucky bourbon base blended with an 8-year wheated pot-distilled bourbon and a 10-year high-rye Kentucky bourbon, bottled unfiltered at cask strength 118.1 proof from a 13-barrel batch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I drink this high-proof bourbon?\u003c\/strong\u003e At 118.1 proof it is best enjoyed neat with a few drops of water to open the complex flavors — the dilution softens the intense oak and spice and reveals the underlying caramel and fruit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat flavor profile should I expect?\u003c\/strong\u003e A bold, oak-forward profile with layered caramel, vanilla, baking spices, and dried fruit — deep wood tannins from the 19-year base, sweetness from the wheated component, and spice from the high-rye portion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is in the Immaculata 2026 blend?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"A 19-year Kentucky bourbon base blended with an 8-year wheated pot-distilled bourbon and a 10-year high-rye Kentucky bourbon, bottled unfiltered at cask strength 118.1 proof from a 13-barrel batch.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How should I drink this high-proof bourbon?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"At 118.1 proof it is best enjoyed neat with a few drops of water to open the complex flavors — the dilution softens the intense oak and spice and reveals the underlying caramel and fruit.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What flavor profile should I expect?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"A bold, oak-forward profile with layered caramel, vanilla, baking spices, and dried fruit — deep wood tannins from the 19-year base, sweetness from the wheated component, and spice from the high-rye portion.\"}}]}\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou must be 21 years of age or older to purchase this product.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Very Olde St. Nick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53892934009200,"sku":"VERY-OLDE-ST-NICK-ANCIEN-8MLPND","price":259.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0276\/1621\/5176\/files\/ChatGPT_Image_May_29_2026_11_21_44_AM.png?v=1781044528","url":"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/products\/very-olde-st-nick-ancient-cask-immaculata-2026-bourbon","provider":"Wooden Cork","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
