It’s about that time of year again when you have to start hunting for that special gift for someone; and we here at Empire Mixology have the opportunity to work with some of the most interesting and enterprising brands in the cocktail culture scene. This year we want to start off with Cascade Blonde American Whiskey.
Cascade Blonde American Whiskey is a new style of blonde American whiskey that’s incredibly smooth, lighter in color and easier to drink than floating downstream. Lakelovers and dock dwellers meet your new favorite daytime summer sipper. They finish their blonde American Whiskey with limestone filtered Cascade Spring water for a crisp, smooth taste. Because great whiskey isn’t possible without pure water, we’ve teamed up with American Rivers to help protect our water ways so the good times always flow.
Cascade Blonde American Whiskey has easily become an outdoor lover’s favorite daytime sipper, even in the fall and winter months. With it’s smooth-drinking profile and buoy-inspired bottle, Cascade Blonde is the perfect companion for any outdoor AND indoor activities, whether it be boating, fishing, bonfires and more.
If you don’t take our word for it; give these two recipes below a try and we guarantee you’ll impress your loved ones with this gift!
