Elvis Whiskey has launched a new butter, banana, and bacon-flavored whiskey called 'Midnight Snack.' 'Midnight Snack' contains a delectable mixture of sweet and savory to mimic Elvis' style and music perfectly. The alcohol is said to taste like the favorite midnight snack of the jazz singer himself – a peanut butter, banana, butter, and bacon sandwich. Consumers can enjoy 'Midnight Snack' as a straight pour, over rocks, or in a cocktail like the 'Midnight Snack Old Fashioned.' The alcohol is bottled at 70-proof and joins Elvis Whiskey's previous 'Tiger Man' and 'The King' Tennessee Straight Whiskeys.
"To sip, or shoot-flavored whiskeys are continuing to grow in popularity, with flavored whiskey growing +19% and peanut butter flavored whiskey growing +200% in the United States, leaving our team especially excited to introduce ‘Midnight Snack’ to our growing portfolio of Elvis-inspired whiskeys," said Grain & Barrel Founder Matti Anttila.
