Brand History: A Legacy Reimagined at Preservation Distillery
The Rare Perfection brand has a storied past, with its roots tracing back to renowned spirits aficionado Marci Palatella. Today, the brand finds its home at Preservation Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky, a site steeped in bourbon history. Preservation Distillery, helmed by the Willett family (also known for their own iconic Willett Distillery), is dedicated to the art of small-batch and rare whiskey production.While Rare Perfection often sources exceptional aged whiskies, their stewardship ensures careful maturation and thoughtful bottling.
The "Snow Day" selection represents a pinnacle of this philosophy – identifying a single barrel of remarkable quality from Bardstown, a region synonymous with the heart of Kentucky bourbon, and allowing its character to shine through additional aging at Preservation Distillery. You can often learn more about the unique approach of distilleries like Preservation through dedicated spirits blogs and their own Preservation Distillery website (if available and provides relevant brand info).
Tasting Notes: Intense, Complex, and Unforgettable
Given its 9-year maturation, cask strength nature, and Bardstown origins, the Rare Perfection "Snow Day" single barrel can be expected to deliver a robust and deeply flavorful experience. While each single barrel is unique:
Nose: Expect a powerful bouquet of rich caramel, deep vanilla bean, and toasted oak, likely intertwined with dark fruits like cherries and plums, baking spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), and a hint of aged leather or tobacco. The high proof will make its presence known with a warming intensity.
Palate: A full-bodied and viscous mouthfeel, bursting with flavor. Deep toffee, dark chocolate, and molasses notes could lead, supported by robust oak tannins. Layers of complex spice – rye spice, black pepper, and clove – might mingle with sweeter notes of maple syrup or brown sugar and the dark fruit found on the nose. Being uncut and unfiltered means all the natural oils and esters are present, contributing to a richer texture.
Finish: Exceptionally long, warm, and lingering. The high proof ensures a powerful finish, carrying notes of charred oak, spicy rye, dark sweets, and perhaps a touch of smoky leather. The complexity should continue to evolve long after the sip.
