Big Easy 5 Year Old Whiskey

Big Easy 5 Year Old Whiskey is an American whiskey crafted from a traditional bourbon-style mash and aged for five years in used bourbon barrels. The mature whiskey is infused with a proprietary blend of more than two dozen herbs, spices, botanicals, and fruits, designed to complement its underlying whiskey character. Aromas of vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice lead into complex herbal notes reminiscent of amaro, with cedar and lemon balm adding a distinctive savory edge. Smooth, flavorful, and versatile, it can be enjoyed neat, over ice, or in cocktails inspired by New Orleans’ celebrated drinking culture.
