Slipknot No. 9 Red Cask Iowa Whiskey
Slipknot No. 9 Red Cask Iowa Whiskey hails from the heartland of the United States, specifically Iowa. This whiskey is a collaboration between the band Slipknot and Cedar Ridge Distillery, reflecting both Iowa’s rich agricultural heritage and the band’s bold character. It boasts a rich amber hue, indicative of its aging process in specially selected red wine casks.
On the nose, Slipknot No. 9 Red Cask offers a complex aroma with notes of caramel, vanilla, and a hint of red fruit from the wine casks. The palate is equally robust, featuring flavors of toasted oak, dried fruits, and a touch of spice, which balance the sweetness imparted by the wine casks. This whiskey is crafted from a blend of corn, rye, and malted barley, contributing to its smooth yet intricate profile.
With an alcohol content of 48%, this whiskey is potent yet drinkable. It can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks to fully appreciate its depth and character. For a different experience, it can also be used as a base for classic cocktails, adding a unique twist to traditional recipes.
