Southern Distilling Company Enters American Single Malt Category
North Carolina’s Southern Distilling Company now enters the American Single Malt whiskey category with a new, limited-release expression: Southern Star American Single Malt Whiskey. Distilled and bottled in-house in Statesville, this six-year-aged whiskey is bottled at (presumably cask strength) 114.8 proof.
“We’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to release our American Single Malt,” said Pete Barger, co-founder and CEO of Southern Distilling Company. “After hosting a tasting event in July with Brewzle and hearing the overwhelming response from whiskey enthusiasts, we knew it was time for Southern Star to make its mark on the category.”
This limited-edition release will be available starting September 19 at Southern Distilling Company’s Tasting Room (211 Jennings Road, Statesville, NC) and will roll out to local North Carolina ABC stores in the following weeks for a modest $49.95.
