Let’s break down our whiskey lineup and help you figure out which one fits your taste.

Apple Whiskey: Crisp and Easy to Sip

How to drink it: Neat, on the rocks, or with apple cider and a cinnamon stick.

Cask Strength Whiskey: 120 Proof of Flavor

If you like your whiskey strong and real, this is your pick. Aged five years and bottled straight from the barrel, it packs bold notes of dark chocolate, charred oak, and caramel.

Cinnafire Whiskey: For the Ones Who Like a Kick

This one has a cinnamon bite, smooth caramel, and a toasty finish. At 70 proof, it’s bold but still smooth enough for a quick sip or a fun cocktail.

Perfect for: Whiskey lovers who like a little heat and a lot of flavor.

Dead Barrel Whiskey: Smoke and Peanut Butter

Peanut butter fans, meet your new favorite. This one combines smoky whiskey with creamy, nutty flavor. It’s rugged but goes down easy, great after dinner or in a sweet cocktail.

Try it: Over ice or with chocolate liqueur for a peanut butter cup-style drink.

Honey Whiskey: Smooth, Sweet, and Straightforward

With notes of toasted oak, caramel, and honey, this whiskey is a crowd-pleaser. It’s approachable, easy to enjoy, and full of rich flavor without being too much.

Best for: First-timers or anyone looking for something relaxed but still tasty.

Peanut Butter Whiskey: Rich, Creamy, and Different

This one leans full-on dessert. Roasted peanuts, vanilla, and caramel combine for a smooth, bold finish. Great for whiskey fans or folks who don’t usually go for dark liquor.

Mix it with: Chocolate liqueur, milk, or coffee. Or drink it on its own.

Tennessee Whiskey: Classic and Clean

Aged 6–12 months, this whiskey is all about the basics. It’s balanced and smooth. No flavors added.
