Orkney-Islands based Whiskey company [Highland Park](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-masters-anthology-whiskey) has teamed up with the Brooklyn-based [Meat Hooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-mess-burger) in a delicious meeting of minds to bring us [Whiskey-Infused Jerky](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jack-daniels-dinner-sausages). The custom, hand-made jerky was made from grass-fed NYC cows and is paired with the smooth, refined taste of Highland Park’s luxury whiskey. To really indulge, try this subtle whiskey-flavored jerky with a tumbler of the brand's stiff single malt.

 If you know any whiskey fans, foodies, or anyone who just enjoy the finer things in life, this whiskey-infused jerky would make for an excellent gift. This would also make a delicious appetizer for the round of Holiday parties that are sure to be coming up -- but there definitely doesn’t need to be a special occasion for you to enjoy this tasty treat.
