Grand Ten’s Horatio’s Reserve Whiskey
GrandTen Distilling is pleased to announce the launch of their latest small-batch whiskey in collaboration with Everett-based Bone Up Brewing Company. Taking one of Bone Up’s popular West Coast style IPAs, Oh My!, GrandTen crafted a whiskey mash with the same ingredient profile (minus the hops) to create Horatio’s Reserve Whiskey. This latest small batch whiskey was aged for four years in American Oak and is 85 proof. It has a velvety mouthfeel, incredibly smooth finish, and hints of creme brulee sweetness on the nose. Packed with the rich taste of dark toast, molasses, and a surprisingly pleasant oak finish. Horatio’s Reserve Whiskey is available for a limited time only at GrandTen Distillery while supplies last.
