American distillery Chattanooga Whiskey has released Bad Chattanoogan, its first Tennessee whiskey, using an unusual finishing method: 30 “records” cut from solid sugar maple, toasted for 24 hours and laser-engraved with two original songs about the city of Chattanooga, were placed in the barrels for 30 days.
The songs were written by creative director Rich Abercrombie, and the distillery says it is the first whiskey finished this way. The base spirit is a straight Tennessee whiskey made from three high-malt mash bills, filtered through maple charcoal and aged more than four years, bottled at 100 proof.
The range comes in two versions sold separately, Side A and Side B, each with its own song, and every bottle carries a small playable record on its hangtag. The price is $64.99, with limited distribution in Tennessee.
