Description
Not just your ordinary cinnamon-flavored offering.
In the Brooklyn Navy Yard, on the waterfront that was once known as the distillery district, there’s a proud red-brick building that houses the first distillery in New York City since the Prohibition. And even if it’s a mere decade old, it’s actually the oldest distillery in Big Apple. They mash, ferment, distill, and bottle right there in that building, using New York grains. Practically the only thing that’s imported are the Scottish copper-pot stills. In the short time that they’ve been operational they were named Distillery of the Year by the American Distilling Institute and have won several awards, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition included. Do we have your attention yet?
Bottled at a respectable 80 proof, Kings County Spiced Whiskey is their special seasonal release for fall and winter. It’s crafted with an infusion of baking spices, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, allspice, black peppercorns, star anise, and clove — you know, all the spice that you associate with your mulled ciders and hot toddies. This is not your regular mass-produced cinnamon-flavored offering, however. It’s bold yet balanced and it has just enough of that spicy cinnamon kick to elevate your eggnog. Enjoy in crisp, cool weather.
