FEW Spirits is releasing a new limited edition ‘Motor Oil Whiskey’ that celebrates a partnership between Paul Hletko and the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. The whiskey was inspired by a humorous idea by Robert Levon Been to create a "painful" whiskey that was extremely bitter. Paul Hletko advised that this was illegal, suggesting instead that the pair spend time learning how to brew whiskey.
The FEW Spirits ‘Motor Oil Whiskey’ is a blend of whiskeys from three different barrels, including a rum barrel, a vermouth barrel, and a wheat whiskey that is smoked with mesquite. The whiskey will be produced in limited quantities, with only 1,800 bottles being produced. The FEW Spirits ‘Motor Oil Whiskey’ will be sold direct-to-consumer on the brand’s website.
