Blackened American Whiskey
BLACKENED is a super-premium whiskey born from an epic collaboration between Master Distiller Dave Pickerell and the legendary band Metallica. This unique blend of hand-selected, well-aged bourbons and ryes is finished in black brandy casks, creating a rich and complex flavor profile.
Unique Finishing Process
Using the proprietary BlackNoise finishing process, each batch of whiskey is blasted with its very own Metallica playlist, selected and arranged by the band themselves. The low-frequency sound waves force the whiskey to penetrate deeper into the barrel, extracting more caramel, honey, and vanilla flavors from the wood. The result is a magnificently balanced whiskey, robust in flavor and ideal for sipping neat, on the rocks, or in a classic cocktail.
