The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey
The Dead Rabbits were a notorious Irish immigrant street gang whose sworn enemies were the nativist anti-immigrant Bowery Boys. Their antagonism came to a head in a notorious riot that raged for days in 1857. Up to a thousand gang members were involved before order was finally restored. The leader of the Dead Rabbits was John Morrissey, a notorious figure who would later go on to become a Democratic congressman and senator.
The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey uses two types of casks, the result is real depth and character over a lingering note of bourbon vanilla sweetness. A unique five-year-old blend of Irish malt and grain whiskey finished in half-sized, specially crafted virgin American oak barrels and seasoned bourbon barrels. Crafted by world renowned whiskey expert and Master Distiller, Darryl McNally.
