“Are you sure That we are awake? It seems to me That yet we sleep, we dream.”
– Demetrius, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Act 4, Scene 1 – Wm. Shakespeare
Like the works of our favorite playwright, William Shakespeare, a glass of A Midwinter Night’s Dram® is made to be savored, and over all too quickly. This limited-release whiskey is a sumptuous marriage of rye whiskeys finished in Port barrels. The rye forms a beautiful base of vanilla, caramel, and cinnamon while the port barrels provide notes of plum, dried fruit, and spice. Like a proper holiday plum pudding, it’s brimming with lovely mulling spices, dried fruits, and crème anglaise. Sip it slowly through the coldest night.

How to Enjoy
We recommend that you enjoy this special spirit neat, due to its many layers of complexity, next to a warm fire as the snow piles up on the window sill. It also pairs beautifully with fig cookies!
