Fiddler Big Green Egg Bourbon Whiskey

This is a special collaboration between ASW Distillery and Big Green Egg, two of Atlanta’s most celebrated brands. This is absolutely not a gimmick. This is a special vatting of eight carefully selected barrels: six from legendary MGP in Indiana and two from Wilderness Trail in Kentucky, two of the most respected names in American whiskey. This is a beauty: non-chill filtered, and bottled at 100 proof. It’s some serious juice.

Part of what makes this so dang good is that it’s the ultimate labor of love. Master distiller Justin Manglitz hand-harvests Georgia white oak staves, seasons them outdoors for at least two years, then smokes, toasts, and chars them pit-master style over oak and hickory directly inside a Big Green Egg ceramic smoker. At the end, those custom staves go right back into the bourbon barrels for the final stretch of maturation.
