Support Your Local Spirits
and Wine Retailers
It’s a busy time in the spirits and wine business. Brands know you’re considering what to buy for those holiday gatherings, gifts, or COVID-influenced quarantinis. Don’t forget to support your local retailers with your purchases. They work hard to see products you love are stocked and in our eyes, they’re some of the hardest working people of the pandemic. View the calendar below and if there is a sampling in your area, pop in for a sample of the brand and say hi!

FEATURED BRAND OF THE WEEK – Blackened American Whiskey
Blackened American Whiskey
BLACKENED™ is a collaborative effort between Metallica and Master Distiller, the late Dave Pickerell. As unapologetic masters of craft in their respective fields, they’ve built world-renowned legacies by carving out new spaces and bringing their singular, incendiary perspectives to everything they touch.
Unlikely collaborators on the surface, their shared creative fire, and dedication to craft make them anything but. Together, they’ve created BLACKENED™ — an unconventional whiskey of uncompromising quality.
From the time Dave was a cadet at West Point, he was fascinated with the effects of sound—the way an organ can play a note that shakes an entire building. As he honed his craft over the years, the thought of what sound could do to whiskey at a molecular level stayed with him. As it so happened, Metallica and Meyer Sound innovated a subwoofer
employing that same range, harnessing the vibrations that make a Metallica
concert the resonant, visceral experience their fans know and love.
The convergence of these ambitions have resulted in a sonic-enhancement
method that utilizes a variation of the band’s song-determined frequencies to disrupt the whiskey inside the barrel, causing increased wood interaction that kicks up the wood-flavor characteristics in the whiskey. We call this
proprietary sonic-enhancement process BLACK NOISE™.
