But on my first night visiting family, I realized that flavored whiskey had grown more than I’d expected when my brother reached for a bottle of Skrewball to make a drink. In an age of overproof, “ hazmat ” bourbons, the low alcohol level in flavored whiskeys is the opposite — and might even be part of their appeal.

The GSMC defines these as bourbons that are priced at £51 per bottle and above. The age statement in itself is extremely impressive, given that bourbon tends to be bottled at a lot younger than scotch, for example.

The cocktail renaissance hadn’t happened yet, so the back bar was polluted with the usual suspects of flavored vodkas like Stoli Vanilla and Absolut Kurant along with dusty bottles of Galliano and Tuaca that probably hadn’t been opened in years.

Just look at the sheer number of alcohol brands launched in the past decade by Bravolebrities (Bravo celebrities, if you’re new here). While the lineup — which sold to Beam Suntory in 2011 — has since expanded to include several other cocktails, wines, vodka, and even salad dressings, we stuck to the OG Marg. tequila boom.

Grown in the region’s calcareous clay, sand, and limestone soils, Sagrantino produces dark, concentrated, high-alcohol wines with ABVs typically in the 15 percent range, due in part to the long growing time required to achieve full ripeness. Good acidity balances out the high alcohol. Plenty of time.
