Big Easy Spirits Company announced that its debut expression is now available in New Orleans. Its flagship Big Easy Whiskey is 100% premium, 5-year Straight Whiskey made from Bourbon mash and infused with a proprietary blend of botanicals and fruit that enhance the whiskey’s smooth, rich flavor.

Big Easy Whiskey is a ready-to-drink everyday whiskey for sipping straight over ice or bringing depth and complexity to cocktail recipes, whether that’s the elegant Easy Over Ice or the coffee-centric Easy Like Sunday Morning.

BESCO is a New Orleans-based spirits supplier founded by distilled spirits industry veterans and New Orleans natives. Their idea: Bring a high-end spirit to the New Orleans market that’s neither kitschy nor pretentious. Bold and boozy, bitter and sweet, the flagship whiskey embodies the soul of New Orleans with old-fashioned flavor and modern Big Easy style.

Big Easy Whiskey starts with 100 percent American whiskey distilled in Kentucky and Indiana. Its traditional bourbon mash bill is 81 percent corn, 15 percent rye and 4 percent barley. BESCO ages the whiskey for five years in used bourbon barrels for a softer taste. Big Easy Whiskey emerges as a rich, round, American whiskey that is infused with two dozen herbs, spices, and fruit chosen by Master Blender Kieran Walsh to accentuate the whiskey’s flavor.

The whiskey is bottled at 86 proof and has a MRSP of $34.99.

Big Easy Whiskey is distributed in Louisiana by Republic National Distributing Company (RNDC) and available online at Big Easy Whiskey – Bourbon Outfitter.
