When it comes to the drinking preferences of many Australians it’s safe to say we all have our favourites.
From a chilled beer straight from the tap at your local pub, a chilled glass of wine, spirit, and mixer, or a cocktail that you accidentally consume way too fast, trying something new is often not at the top of our to-do lists.
But in the spirit of the new year, and getting out of our respective comfort zones, we are encouraging all the non-whisky drinkers out there to give Wee Smoky a crack.
Designed for the gin and tonic drinkers, the vodka soda girls, and cocktail aficionados alike, Wee Smoky is a brand new alcohol brand to the Australian liquor market that is already making major waves.
What sets Wee Smoky whisky apart from all the other whisky brands on the market?
For starters, the single-grain scotch has been designed to complement cocktails, rather than overpower them.
With a subtle smoky undertone and smooth finish, it’s rewriting the rulebook and making the dark liquor more accessible and appealing to younger, adventurous drinkers who crave bold flavours without the heaviness of traditional whisky.
“We’re here to make the whisky category less stuffy and more modern and engaging,” the brand writes on its website.
Since launching down under, Wee Smoky’s approachable profile and ability to be mixed seamlessly with a variety of serves have made it a popular choice for Aussies looking to elevate their drink of choice without breaking the bank.
“Our mission was simple: create a whisky for people who think they don’t like whisky,” Rory Gammell of Wee Smoky tells New Idea.
“We’ve been overwhelmed by Australia’s response – it’s clear they were ready for a fresh, fun take on this timeless spirit,” he adds.
What is the signature serve for Wee Smoky whisky?
If you are looking to give Wee Smoky a whirl for yourself, why not try it shaken into a smoky Whisky Sour, or better yet try the Wee Smoky mixed with Capi Grapefruit Soda?
Where can I buy Wee Smoky whisky in Australia?
Wee Smoky whisky is available to purchase in Australia at more than 400 bottleshops including Liquorland.
How much is Wee Smoky whisky?
Wee Smoky whisky is $79.00 RRP.
