Producer’s tasting notes
The spirit has a warm, honey-amber colour. Burnt caramel, oak and honey are present on the nose, with moderate hints of spice upon first taste. The flavour builds with notes of honey, cinnamon, allspice, clove and mint, with unexpected apricot lingering underneath. Expect a long and
smooth finish with slightly creamy hints of butterscotch taffy, maple and honey.

Bottling Notes
We’re still in quiet mourning after hearing the news that Metallica have cancelled their Australian tour – we had our tickets bought and our old 90’s Metallica tee-shirts freshly cleaned and pressed (albeit a little tighter these days). The good news is, we’re still refreshing our Blackened stock as they seem to be selling even faster now after the bad news.
Don’t miss out on owning both a unique piece of whiskey history and official Metallica memorabilia with this bottle of Blackened Whiskey (Batch 92). It’s a ground-breaking collaboration between Master Distiller, Dave Pickerell and the legends of Metallica.
After the whiskeys have been combined in the black brandy casks for finishing, they’re jolted back to life by the unmistakable, earth-shattering music of Metallica. Using the proprietary sonic-enhancement system BLACK NOISE™, the whiskey is pummelled by low hertz sound waves so concentrated that it actually intensifies the molecular interaction of the whiskey causing it to seep deeper into the barrel, where it picks up additional wood flavour characteristics.
The inaugural batch is labelled 081, to signify the year the band formed. Each batch of 5000 bottles will come with an accompanying playlist on Spotify and Apple Music.
