Nothing says Rock 'N' Roll like Tequila and Whiskey, and this collaboration between FEW Spirits and Alice and Chains is one hot lick.
Paul Hletko’s grandfather lost his Czechoslovak brewery to the Nazi’s in World War II and never got it back. Paul was doing home brewing and wanted to go into business for himself and took his family history and experience to heart, founding FEW Spirits in 2011. Ever the rebel, he opened his "grain to glass" craft business in Evanston, Illinois — the birthplace of the temperance movement — from a small building whose only entryway is through a back alley. And we are all glad he did. Over the last eight years, FEW Spirits has grown to three Whiskies, three Gins, and a handful of employees whose motto is "By the Few, for the Few."
Alice In Chains — or AIC to their fans — is one of the iconic music acts of the 1990s. They have a signature harmonized vocal style and Grunge-Metal sound fusion that made them one of the top-selling bands of the era. And now they have a signature Whiskey.
FEW Alice In Chains Tequila Barrel Finish Bourbon — nicknamed "All Secrets Known" — starts with FEW’s multi-award-winning three-grain Bourbon. But this time it’s finished for six months in ex-Tequila casks because "no two Spirits have a closer association with rock and roll than Whiskey and Tequila." This Spirit is one hot lick at 50.5% ABV.
Smartass Corner:
The Bourbon gets its name from the first track on the band's fourth studio album from 2009, "Black Gives Way to Blue."
