Michigan Cherry Whiskey

Before Prohibition, many American distillers added small amounts of fruit juices to sweeten the whiskey as it aged in wooden barrels. Leopold Bros. revives this classic style of whiskey production by juicing world-renowned Montmorency tart cherries from Michigan, and blending the juice with their whiskey. The spirit then rests in used Bourbon barrels, giving the flavours time to marry and mature. Like all Leopold Bros. spirits, this is bottled by hand, to preserve the bright, cherry flavour and full burgundy colour.
