'The Beverly: The QuintEssential Edition' is an exclusive, limited-release American 'Single Malt Whiskey,' with only 675 bottles available. This special release is the result of a collaboration between Andrew Borenzweig, Founder of [Beverly Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beverly-hills-plastic-surgery), and Master Distiller Murphy Quint of [Cedar Ridge Distillery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/premium-handcrafted-whiskey).

Aged for six years, the whiskey is finished in "[First](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toy-fair-new-york-2026) Fill Amontillado Sherry and French Oak casks, which impart a layered complexity to its flavor profile and is bottled at a natural cask strength of 116.9 proof (58.45% ABV), offering a full-bodied, intense experience." The aroma is characterized by rich notes of "cocoa and soft leather, followed by waves of caramel, toffee, and candied cherry; it finishes with dark chocolate, sherry sweetness, and the warmth of French oak."

Presented in 750ml bottles, The Beverly: The QuintEssential Edition is available at select retailers, bars, restaurants, and hotels in California and Tennessee. Additionally, a limited quantity can be purchased online in 47 states.
