Craft whiskey maker Bespoken is set to add three new whiskeys to its portfolio.
Bespoken is known for its proprietary process that uses tailored wood finishing to develop complex flavors, resulting in sustainable whiskeys high on flavor with less impact on the environment.
The three new expressions will be a bourbon, a rye, and an American whiskey.
In a statement from Bespoken, the blender’s notes show that the new bourbon features aromas of peanut brittle, savory vanilla and black pepper. It finishes with caramel and roasted almond notes. It clocks in at 94 proof, and has a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, 4% malt.

On the palate, cinnamon sugar tastes feature with a finish of cacao nib and winter spices. It comes bottled at 100 proof and has a mash bill of 99% corn, 1% malt.
Peter Iglesias, CEO of Bespoken, said in the prepared statement, “We are proud to say that our approach to sustainability has not compromised the quality of our spirits; it has only enhanced it, allowing us to create unique and complex flavor profiles.”
