J. Carver Distillery of Waconia, Minnesota, is proud to announce the second limited edition release of its highly acclaimed cask strength single malts, Etiquette Whiskey and Trifecta Whiskey.
“Introduced to the market late last year, these two very different and very unique single malt whiskies were developed in collaboration with our friends at BSG, a subsidiary of Rahr Malting based in Shakopee, Minnesota,” stated Bill Miller, a founder of J. Carver, in a press release. “This … is simply to make our friends and fans aware that these extremely limited release products are shipping to select retailers, so they can avail themselves to the limited supply.”
“Those that enjoyed our first limited release of Etiquette and Trifecta Whiskey are in for another treat once our second edition release of these two unique offering hits their lips,” followed Gina Holman, founder and managing partner of J. Carver Distillery. “Our customers are thrilled for our second edition release of these single malts and although production is limited to fewer than 500 bottles of Etiquette and 600 bottles of Trifecta, they will be available to scotch-lovers and whiskey aficionados just in time for holidays.”
Holman describes Etiquette Whiskey “as a smooth and balanced limited release cask strength whiskey distilled from a single malt with an amazing balance of sweetness and spice. Rich with intriguing flavors of dried fruit, red currant, bright citrus, baking spices, roasted cereal, caramel, honey, and nougat whereas Trifecta Whiskey is an unusually complex cask strength single malt whiskey with rich and intriguing flavors of espresso, chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, spice, dried bitter orange peel, apricot, dark toffee, caramel, malted cereal, and nougat.”
