About the product: Coffee Whiskey is made in close collaboration with longtime Brooklyn Navy Yard neighbors Parlor Coffee. Obsessively crafted from a blend of Kings County’s finest whiskeys and Parlor’s exceptional ready-to-drink Cold Brew, our Coffee Whiskey sets out to define a more elegant and thoughtful flavored spirit. With a balance, complexity, and depth of flavor that is as suited for cocktail backbars as it is late-night neat pours, this hyper-local whiskey aims to represent the forefront of Brooklyn’s craft culture to the wider world. 

While cocktail-making has evolved rapidly over the last two decades, spirits companies haven’t necessarily kept up with the times. Coffee, in the context of cocktails, often means one of two things: either syrupy coffee liqueurs, or the use of coffee itself as a component ingredient. Our blending team imagined Coffee Whiskey as a newer, better expression of those concepts.

Tasting Notes: The lively, tropical top notes and creamy, chocolate undertones of Parlor’s Cold Brew — made from a blend of uncompromisingly sourced coffees and roasted in Brooklyn — marry perfectly with the balanced sweetness and rich complexity of our own blend of house-made bourbon and corn whiskey. The resulting drinking experience is that of a true whiskey, but with an added depth of flavor that evokes the elegance of fine Madeira wines and Italian amari.
