A flavored whiskey using straight bourbon and macerated Blackberries, this is a rare entry into the Whiskey Raiders tasting catalogue featuring a flavored spirit. Distilled by Starlight in Indiana.
Honestly, this is about the best flavored whiskey to cross my desk, well, ever. It's sweet, it's fruity, and it's rich, but it's natural and doesn't stray towards cloying, artificial or nastiness. Big ups to Starlight for bringing this release to market, and it's a perfect cocktailing ingredient for those citrus forward cocktails.
