Blackened Whiskey

Blackened whiskey is a spirit made from blending multiple barrels of whiskey that have been charred over an open flame. This technique was developed by bourbon icon, Dave Pickerell. The charring of the whiskey breaks down the wood, releasing the sugars and opening up the spirit to more complexities and flavor. It has a unique smoky flavor with a soft finish, and is perfect for use in any sipping whiskey drink. Blackened whiskey can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks, and is popular in cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Manhattan. It has a slightly sweet taste with hints of vanilla, caramel, and spice. This type of whiskey is great for sipping and will often leave a slight smokiness on the palate. It goes well with most types of whiskey cocktails and no matter how you enjoy it, it will bring a unique complexity and flavor to each sip. For whiskey aficionados, this is a great way to experience a unique and exclusive kind of whiskey. It is particularly fantastic for those who want to experience the rich flavors of a bourbon or rye without the higher cost of a single-barrel whiskey.
