The Smoke Shop BBQ - Harvard Square

06/07/2023

Cheers to and a new here at The Smoke Shop BBQ!

Introducing BLACKENED, an award-winning, super-premium whiskey collaboration from late Master Distiller, Dave Pickerell, and . Pickerell collaborated with the legendary 80/90's band to create this unique blend of the finest bourbons and ryes, aged in black brandy barrels. While this whiskey ages, it relaxes to the tunes of Metallica's “Justice for All” album. The low frequency sounds force the whiskey into the wood, grabbing onto the apricot fruit flavors from the brandy-soaked cask.

We have a feeling you’re going to love this one. Come try for just $10/pour until next 🥃

Woodford Reserve has been the sponsor of the Kentucky Derby since 1999, and we are thrilled to announce it as our Whiskey of the Week! We have personally selected this private barrel to pay tribute to the greatest two minutes in sports, taking place this Saturday 🏇. Woodford is produced in one of the oldest standing distilleries in Kentucky, the Old Oscar Pepper Distillery, which has been a historic landmark since 1812. This 90.4 proof bourbon has notes of dried fruit, flavors of toffee, and an unforgettable smooth creamy finish. Don’t believe us? We encourage you to come try for yourself at any of our locations for just $10/pour until next 🥃
