Detroit City Distillery says it has unleashed something new and slightly “dangerous” in the form of Hot Honey Bourbon, made with local honey from local community apiary Bees in the D.
“This bottle isn’t just a sweet little sipper,” the distillery says. “It’s a sweet–heat hammer, crafted to light up your cocktails, your taste buds, and maybe your weekend plans. This isn’t some novelty flavored whiskey.This is Detroit-style heat.”
Detroit City took its house bourbon, infused it with local honey from Bees in the D, and then finished it off with a proprietary blend of chili heat. The result? A balanced spirit that starts mellow, then finishes with a fire.
A very limited number of Hot Honey Bourbon bottles went on sale last week at the distillery and online, priced at $60 per bottle.
