From slow-roasted roast beef to turkey, Arby's is all about meat and it is now applying its expertise in all things smoked to its newest creation, Arby's Smoked Bourbon. Notably, this limited-edition whiskey is "smoked with the same real woods — hickory, mesquite, and pecan — used to smoke Arby's meats from Sadler's Smokehouse in Texas." As a result, the whiskey perfectly captures the essence of Arby's signature flavor.
Specifically, this bourbon takes cues from the 13-hour Smoked Brisket sandwich and the limited-time only, eight-hour smoked pork Country-Style Rib sandwich. The 90-proof spirit was made possible by Brain Brew Custom Whiskey in Newtown, Ohio. Soon, fans will be able to purchase a bottle of their own online, along with a limited-edition cocktail smoker in the shape of the Arby's hat.
