DESCRIPTION

The Blackened 72 Seasons Whiskey, created by the legendary American heavy metal band Metallica, is a limited edition of BLACKENED American Whiskey. This special bottling was released in 2023, coinciding with Metallica's album "72 Seasons," and represents a fascinating connection between the world of music and high-quality spirits.

The whiskey is an excellent blend of the finest North American straight bourbon and rye whiskeys, finished in brandy casks and sonically enhanced through the innovative Black Noise Sonic-Enhancement process. This unique process, in which the whiskey is exposed to Metallica's music during its aging, gives it a distinctive and characterful taste.

Developed to celebrate Metallica's 12th studio album and the M72 world tour, the Blackened 72 Seasons Limited Edition Whiskey represents the creative collaboration between Metallica and the late Master Distiller Dave Pickerell. This extraordinary whiskey reflects Metallica's own vision and passion for exceptional American whiskeys.

The Blackened 72 Seasons Whiskey is not only a must-have for Metallica fans but also for whiskey connoisseurs seeking something unique. Its rich and complex flavor profile, combined with its deep connection to the music world, makes it a valuable and rare addition to any whiskey collection. For lovers of fine spirits and rock music, this whiskey is a perfect symbiosis of both worlds.

  • Blackened - American Whiskey

    Blackened Whiskey represents a true collaboration between icons from different realms: Metallica, a powerhouse of heavy metal, and Dave Pickerell, a true pioneer in American whiskey. This unique partnership brings together music and spirits in an innovative way.

    The two icons employ a special technique known as "BLACK NOISE" to enhance the maturation of Blackened Whiskey. Essentially, the whiskey is aged in barrels that are pummeled by a Meyer's Sound Subwoofer playing a curated selection of Metallica songs. This process agitates the whiskey in the barrels, leading to a more intense interaction with the wood and amplifying the flavors.

    Following the passing of Pickerell in 2018, Metallica turned to Rob Dietrich, formerly of Stranahan's Single Malt Whiskey, to take over as the distiller and blender of Blackened American Whiskey. Under his leadership, the tradition of innovation and quality continues, making Blackened Whiskey a unique experience for whiskey enthusiasts.
