BLiS and Red Boat Fish Sauce collaborated to create a bourbon barrel-aged fish sauce for the seafood connoisseur. The gourmet fish sauce in aged for seven months in old whiskey barrels to give it a premium flavor that is both original and delicious.
The BLiS and Red Boat Fish Sauce product is said to have a flavor reminiscent of an Umami bomb, a recent fascination in foodie culture considered by some to be the "fifth taste." The unique product in particular is considered the "gold standard" of fish sauces and is comprised of only two pure ingredients -- anchovies sourced from the coast of Vietnam and sea salt.
The packaging of the product itself is extremely elegant and carries a historical charm thanks to its rubber seal-inspired red topper and ancient script.
