Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey
Don’t panic. You’re not delusional. It really says peanut butter! Who would’ve ever thought an everyday household sandwich staple would find its way into a whiskey?

The smooth, nutty flavor of the first-ever peanut butter whiskey can serve as an end to dull moments at all sorts of gatherings.
Ole Smoky Cookies & Cream Whiskey
The taste of home in a bottle, there’s not much that cookies and cream can’t fix. Ole Smoky Moonshine offers handcrafted 35 proof cookies and cream flavored whiskey that is incredibly indulgent and creamy. Pour it over ice cream or on the rocks for a special treat. Ole Smoky offers other whiskey flavors that are incredibly unique, like Mango Habanero Whiskey, Salty Caramel Whiskey, and Cookie Dough Whiskey.
Rattlesnake Rosie’s Apple Pie Whiskey
Iron Smoke Distillery is located in a part of Upstate New York where they grow a lot of apples. So it was only natural that Iron Smoke took their award-winning Iron Smoke Applewood Smoked Bourbon and added fresh local apple cider, cinnamon, vanilla, and brown sugar to create Rattlesnake Rosie’s Apple Pie Whiskey. With a taste just like sweet apple pie, Rattlesnake Rosie’s is a fan favorite.
8 Ball Chocolate Whiskey
The first 100% all-natural, chocolate-infused bourbon whiskey, 8-Ball Premium Chocolate Whiskey is one of the fastest-growing whiskey brands in the nation. Chocolate and whiskey … need we say more.
BSB Brown Sugar Bourbon
Named “World’s Best Flavored Whiskey” two years in a row by The World Whiskies Awards (Whisky Magazine 2018, 2019), BSB features strong notes of brown sugar and hints of spicy cinnamon. Available in 103 proof, the smooth, warming flavors are like natural, old-fashioned goodness in a bottle.
