AMERICAN WHISKEY...RE-MASTERED
BLACKENED is the award-winning, super-premium whiskey collaboration from late Master Distiller Dave Pickerell and Metallica. A blend of hand-selected, well-aged bourbons & ryes, uniquely finished in black brandy casks and the earth shattering music of Metallica.

A COLLABORATION OF BOURBONS & RYES
BLACKENED™ is a marriage of the finest bourbons & ryes, hand selected by Dave himself. Each of the whiskeys offer unique flavor that play a key role in the final spirit. Predominantly bourbon, the sweetness of BLACKENED™ is paired perfectly with the savory
spice offered by the rye.

THE FINISH:  Dave was renown for his whiskey finishes—an aspect he called “flavoring for adults”. By resting the whiskey in the barrel of another spirit during the maturation phase, the whiskey picks up some of the unique, residual flavors left behind in the barrel. For BLACKENED™, Dave chose to finish the whiskey in black brandy casks. The result is an added apricot note that plays perfectly alongside the honey and caramel tones of the pre-finished spirit.

THE AWAKENING
After the whiskeys have been combined in the black brandy casks for finishing, they’re jolted back to life by the unmistakable, earth-shattering music of Metallica. Using our proprietary sonic-enhancement system BLACK NOISE™, the whiskey is pummeled by sound, causing it to seep deeper into the barrel, where it picks up additional wood flavor characteristics.
