Ole Smoky Mango Habanero is a hand-crafted flavoured whiskey from Ole Smoky Distillery in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof).
It puts a little sizzle with the sweetness: Ole Smoky added the sweet taste of mango and complemented it with a spicy habanero pepper finish.
Creativity is at the heart of this whiskey, which opens juicy and tropical before the heat builds on the finish.

How to Enjoy It
Ole Smoky Mango Habanero is perfect for creating cocktails with a kick. Shake it with lime juice and a little agave for a spicy whiskey sour with a chilli-salt rim, top it with ginger beer and lime for a mango mule, or mix it with pineapple juice over ice. It also works with lemonade, mango nectar or grapefruit soda in a tall glass. Sip it chilled as a shot for a sweet-then-spicy kick. For a party, mix a pitcher of Mango Habanero with pineapple juice, lime and soda water and serve it over ice with mango slices, letting guests add a chilli-salt rim if they like the extra heat. Pair it with fish tacos, jerk chicken, grilled shrimp, wings and spicy barbecue. For a gathering, chill the bottle and set out glasses, ice and garnishes so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays.
