Buckshot Peppered Maple 750 ml

Buckshot Peppered Maple is a flavored whiskey built around a maple sweetness with a black pepper kick layered on top. It's a novelty-leaning bottle in the crowded flavored-whiskey aisle, aimed at drinkers who want something sweeter and spicier than a straight bourbon. Expect a nose of maple syrup and cracked pepper, a syrupy, sweet palate that turns peppery on the back half, and a warm, slightly spicy finish. There isn't much public detail on the exact base whiskey or distillery behind this one, so treat it as a fun, flavor-forward pour rather than a sipping whiskey with pedigree.

How to drink Buckshot Peppered Maple

Serve it over ice to tame the sweetness, or shake it into a whiskey sour where the maple and pepper play well against citrus.
