The release is limited to just 1,100 hand-numbered bottles, each packaged in a bespoke "Ace of Spades" gift box. Cask #1 was bottled at 115.6ᵒ and is limited to 599 bottles with an ABV of 57.8%. Cask #2 was bottled at 115.3ᵒ and is limited to 623 bottles boasting an ABV 57.65%. The Motörhead x Hillrock Distillery Cask Strength Bourbon is available for order now — get yours before it's gone.
The premium quality bourbon serves as a testament to both the enduring legacy of Motörhead and the continued craftsmanship of Hillrock Distillery, the latter of which is one of the few "field-to-glass" whiskey producers in the world. Based in historic Hudson Valley, they are the first U.S. distillery since Prohibition to floor malt and handcraft whiskey on site from estate-grown grain. To date, Hillrock has won over 80 gold medals in major competitions and has established an outstanding reputation for premium quality and innovation.
