Silver Screen Bottling recently teamed up with country music legend Alan Jackson for a new whiskey, named for the color of the singer’s signature cowboy hat … Silverbelly.
The Country Music Hall of Fame member hand-picked the premium whiskey casks for the spirit that would represent his brand.
In a prepared statement, Jackson said that when he opened the first bottle of Silverbelly, it sent him and his team dancing with delight.
Silverbelly is described a bourbon style whiskey that’s smooth in texture with a medium-light body that’s designed to be a sipper or to mix in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan cocktail.

The distiller’s notes come from Jackson’s daughter, sommelier and USA Today best-selling author Mattie Jackson Selecman. She explains that the 750ml bottle of whiskey clocks in at 91 proof and on the nose, has aromas of brown sugar, sweet apple, cherry, and honey.
On the palate, Silverbelly tastes of bright fall fruits with a light, silky texture on the mid-palate; soft caramelized oak tones are met with a savory wood spice on the finish.
The whiskey is currently available in stores in Tennessee and will soon be available nationwide. And it can be pre-ordered online at www.silverbellywhiskey.com.
