David Nicholson 1843

David Nicholson 1843

In 1843 a grocer by the name of David Nicholson started distilling his original bourbon recipe in the private back room of his St. Louis general store on North 6th Street. Unbeknownst to its forefather, a legacy was born. Half a century his recipe had been passed down for generations. Eventually, the legendary Julian Pappy Van Winkle and W.L. Weller handcrafted Nicholson's iconic 43 bourbon at the Stitzel distillery. The Van Winkles owned the brand until 2000 when Luxco acquired it. Still possessing the outstanding character for which it earned its original popularity in 1843, the David Nicholson legacy lives on unchanged, unfettered, and unmatched. Aged in new charred oak barrels this wheated bourbon that provides unparalleled smooth flavor and finish. An incredible flavor profile that earned it at the Double Gold at the 2015 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Pick up your bottle today!
