The World of Whiskey: Exciting Releases and Milestones
The world of whiskey is abuzz with exciting releases and milestones. From the latest addition to the George Dickel Bottled in Bond Series to Japan’s Geographical Indication (GI) status, there’s plenty to explore.
George Dickel Bottled in Bond Series
The fifth release in the George Dickel Bottled in Bond Series has arrived, and it’s a 12-year-old Tennessee whiskey that’s distilled from a mashbill of 84% corn, 8% rye, and 8% malted barley. Bottled at 100 proof, this whiskey is filtered through charcoal in classic Tennessee whiskey fashion.
“Something that makes this series so special is that whisky fans have the rare opportunity to try expertly crafted bottled in bond offerings at a great price,” said Nicole Austin, director of George Dickel and luxury whiskey.
With a suggested retail price of $44.99, this whiskey is a steal. And, at 12 years old, it’s a great example of the quality and craftsmanship that George Dickel is known for.
Japan’s Geographical Indication (GI) Status
In other news, Japan has been granted Geographical Indication (GI) status for its whiskey. This move is a significant milestone for the country’s whiskey industry, as it ensures that all Japanese whiskey is produced, distilled, and bottled in Japan.
The House of Suntory, a pioneer in Japanese whiskey, has been at the forefront of this initiative. By adhering to the standards set by the Japan Spirits & Liqueurs Makers Association (JSLMA), Suntory is committed to preserving the authenticity and excellence of Japanese whiskey.
“We believe this GI will help maintain integrity and further enhance the category,” said Masaki Morimoto, president of The House of Suntory.
With this new designation, whiskey enthusiasts can be assured that Japanese whiskey meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
A New Era for Whiskey
These exciting developments mark a new era for whiskey. From innovative releases to milestones in quality control, the world of whiskey is constantly evolving. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or just discovering the world of whiskey, there’s never been a more exciting time to explore.
