The Stillery & Cityguys: Whisky Hot Shot
Some experiments go wrong. This one went right twice. A spicy whisky liqueur for people who like a shot with some fight in it, made with our friends at Cityguys: 28%, sweet enough to sip, hot enough to notice.
NEVER WASTE A GOOD BARREL
It started as Operation Hot Sauce. We fermented a batch of hot sauce in one of our whisky barrels, mostly to see what would happen. When the sauce came out, the wood was still loaded with flavour. Rinse that away? Not a chance. So we let a whisky liqueur soak up everything the sauce left behind. Limited edition: once it's gone, it's gone.
SWEET FIRST, THEN THE HEAT
Sweet nose with herbs, nuts and a hint of chocolate. Creamy on the palate, then the heat builds. Long, warm finish. Not for sensitive taste buds.
HOW TO DRINK IT
As a shot: 25 ml, chilled.
WHAT THE MONKEYS SAID
"Zodra de eerste druppels op je tong landen, ontvouwt zich een romige laag met kruidige tonen." (Whisky Monkeys, review, 2023)
In English: "As soon as the first drops land on your tongue, a creamy layer with spicy notes unfolds."
Grab a bottle while it lasts, and pour your friends a shot with some fight in it.
