Lost Lantern Announces 2023 Winter Whiskey Wednesday Collection
Independent bottler Lost Lantern has announced its annual Winter Whiskey Wednesday collection. The 2023 collection features four whiskies — two new additions to both the Blend Series and the Single Distillery Series — each bottled non-chill filtered and of natural color.
Lost Lantern Shadow
Distilled by Boulder Spirits, Cedar Ridge, and McCarthy’s
Limited to 500 bottles at 63.15% ABV (126.3 Proof)
Suggested Retail Price: $100
Smoked whiskies take many forms. Lost Lantern Shadow is a blend of peated American single malts that together evoke the shadowy depths of whiskey enjoyment. It includes peated single malts from Iowa (Cedar Ridge), Colorado (Boulder Spirits), and Oregon (McCarthy’s). The result is a blend of rich oak flavor, deep smoke, with notes of roasted blackberries and plums.
Lost Lantern Flame
Distilled by Santa Fe Spirits and Whiskey Del Bac
Limited to 400 bottles at 56.95% ABV (113.9 Proof)
Suggested Retail Price: $100
This is a blend of smoked American whiskies that together evoke brightness and warmth. Lost Lantern Flame brings together mesquite-smoked single malts from Whiskey Del Bac in Arizona and Santa Fe Spirits in New Mexico to create a warm, bright, and smoky whiskey. A brilliant flame with notes of charred oranges, chili chocolate, and smoked meats.
Lost Lantern Mountain Meadow St. George Spirits Single Malt
Limited to 600 bottles at 53.5% ABV (107 Proof)
Suggested Retail Price: $150
St. George Spirits, the oldest craft distillery in the U.S., creates exceptional spirits with a true sense of artistry. Lost Lantern worked closely with the St. George team to create a whiskey that embodies the warmth, bounty, and freshness of California. This is a blend of four truly unique casks. Incredibly fresh and piney, it has hints of Meyer lemon zest, white pepper, lemon verbena, cinnamon sticks, and jasmine tea. Mountain Meadow has a warm and welcoming mouthfeel and a long, gentle finish.
Lost Lantern Brooklyn Bakery Kings County Distillery New York Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Limited to 396 bottles at 66.5% ABV (133 Proof)
Suggested Retail Price: $100
Kings County Distillery, the oldest distillery in New York City, creates some of the country’s most acclaimed and sought-after whiskies using New York-grown grains. Lost Lantern Brooklyn Bakery is a marriage of eight different barrels of 5- and 6-year-old Kings County bourbons that were blended to create a powerful, sweet, and spicy straight bourbon. It has rich dark chocolate notes, with hints of pecan pie, graham cracker, blackberry cobbler, and cherry tart – reminiscent of a Brooklyn bakery on a cold winter day.
The Lost Lantern 2023 Winter Whiskey Wednesday collection will be available for purchase at the new Lost Lantern Tasting Room in Vergennes, VT, lostlanternwhiskey.com, seelbachs.com, and select retailers in New York and California beginning Wednesday, November 29th.
