Eight And Sand Blends Bourbon And American Whiskies
MGP has released Eight and Sand – a blend of Bourbon and American whiskies – that joins their Rack House Series that is said to contain notes of caramel, cinnamon and spice.
The name – Eight and Sand – is a railroading term that is the equivalent of “smooth sailing” as it refers to the eighth notch (the fastest) on a locomotive’s throttle and the use of sand on the wheels to prevent slipping.
Eight and Sand Blended Bourbon Whiskey is being made available in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Texas and Wisconsin for $30 per 750ml bottle.
