Nothing says Southern rock like bourbon, which is probably why the Allman Brothers Band has teamed up with the Three Chord Bourbon brand to release a signature blend.
The new booze is available for preorder. According to Three Chord Bourbon’s website, it’s an attempt to honor the band’s iconic album Eat a Peach. As such, it’s a blend of straight bourbon whiskey finished with toasted peach wood. The taste is described as “smooth and sweet, with added complexity from toasted peach wood,” while the finish is “long and balanced, with notes of sweetness, spice, and caramel.”
The idea for the bourbon started in 2022, and we’re told that the blend, the label design and the idea for the peach wood were all developed with the band. In a statement, ABB’s Jaimoe said, “If you like whiskey, you will dig our collaboration with Three Chord Bourbon. It’s a celebration of our legacy. Far out man. The Road Goes on Forever.”
The bourbon will be available at select retailers later this year. Three Chord Bourbon, by the way, was founded by Neil Giraldo, the musical partner and husband of Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Pat Benatar.
