Award-Winning Single Malt Whiskies

Next Century Spirits is the Company Behind Bear Fight Whiskey

— March 20, 2022 — Marketing
The name Bear Fight Whiskey, although playful in some sense, packs a punch. The beverage has been honored with two gold medals, while the company that produces it—Next Century Spirits ("a local technology company")—was named North Caroline Distillery of the Year in 2021.

The Bear Fight American Single Malt Whisky, which hits the shelves in North Carolina ABC Liquor Stores on March 21st, draws its inspiration from traditional Scotch makers. In doing so, the alcoholic beverage reaches an impeccable balance of flavor.

Bear Fight Whiskey distinguishes itself with an alluring aroma that combines pecan, red apple, and honeysuckle. The palate embrace dried fig, black currant, and candied date. Finally, the finish that hits the connoisseur is one of sweet sherry and a subtle hint of Islay-style peat smoke.
