Last September, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter shook up the spirits industry with the groundbreaking launch of her very own SirDavis American Whisky in partnership with Moët Hennessy. Since then, the award-winning whisky has lit up the Plaza Athénéé at Paris Fashion Week, planted its Texas roots at the Houston Rodeo, and traveled around the world as the Official Spirit of the Cowboy Carter Tour. Along the way, it has turned the whisky landscape on its head by redefining what whisky can be and who it’s for.
Knowles-Carter has crafted an undoubtedly rich blend of rye, malted barley, and toffee that has an almost buttery consistency. The finishing notes of honey are paired with fruit, creating a soft, lingering taste reminiscent of plump sultanas and ripe cherries.
