BLACKENED® x Wes Henderson is the second release in the Masters of Whiskey Series, a collaboration between BLACKENED® Master Distiller & Blender Rob Dietrich and Angel's Envy Co-Founder Wes Henderson. This limited-edition expression features a 6-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey finished in white port wine casks, bottled at cask strength, and non-chill filtered.


Tasting notes include aromas of pear, raisin, cinnamon, and cigar box; a palate of pear, honey, chipotle cinnamon, vanilla, barn hay, and walnut; and a long, viscous finish.

About Blackened

BLACKENED® Whiskey is a collaborative creation between the legendary metal band Metallica and Master Distiller & Blender Rob Dietrich. This innovative whiskey blends North American bourbons and ryes, which are then finished in black brandy casks. A distinctive feature of BLACKENED® is its proprietary BLACK NOISE™ sonic-enhancement process, where low-frequency sound waves from Metallica's music are played during aging, enhancing the whiskey's interaction with the barrels and enriching its flavor profile.


The brand offers a range of expressions, including limited editions and special collaborations, reflecting a commitment to craftsmanship and innovation.
