Well now, let me tell ya about this Howler Head whiskey. It’s a real big deal, y’know, especially if you’re into the UFC. They say it’s the official flavored whiskey of the UFC, and the president, Dana White, he’s all proud to be a partner with the brand. Ain’t that something? A big shot like him backing this stuff!
Now, from what I hear, Howler Head’s got itself a real punch in the flavor department, with a banana twist in there. That’s right, banana. Who’d have thought whiskey would taste like bananas, right? They call it Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, but it’s got this natural banana flavor added in there. Makes it a little more interesting, I reckon. And I heard this stuff’s made down in South Carolina by some folks at Wooler Brands. Quite a ways from Kentucky, where bourbon’s usually made, but I suppose they got their own ways of doin’ things.
But don’t let that fool ya, it’s still got that good ol’ bourbon feel to it. The base starts off with Kentucky Straight Bourbon, so it’s still got that rich, full-bodied taste that people love. Now, I ain’t no expert on whiskey, but I know what tastes good, and this Howler Head’s got a kick to it, I’ll tell ya that much. It’s 40% alcohol, or 80 proof, if ya wanna get all fancy with it.
If you’re in Australia, you might’ve seen UFC fighter Robert Whittaker promoting this brand. He’s a big deal over there, and they got him as a brand ambassador. They sure know how to pick ‘em, don’t they? I bet folks down under are lovin’ it just as much as folks here in the States. Ain’t nothing like a good whiskey to make ya feel right at home, no matter where you’re at.
So, let’s talk about the taste. I reckon it’s got a bit of everything. Some people say it’s got a nose, that’s the smell, of wood smoke, leather, and spices. Sounds fancy, don’t it? You can also get a little bit of caramel, but it’s not too sweet. Just enough to balance out the stronger flavors. And the taste? Well, it’s bold, that’s for sure. You get that rich bourbon flavor first, and then that banana sneaks up on ya like a squirrel on a rainy day. But don’t think it’s all fruity and light, it’s got some real depth to it.
Now, don’t go thinkin’ this is your regular ol’ whiskey. It’s not. It’s got its own thing goin’ on. I guess that’s why they call it the “Monkey Spirit.” Ain’t that a fun name? But for real, it’s a drink that’s breakin’ the mold, doin’ things a little different. People in the whiskey world don’t always know what to make of it, but I reckon that’s just part of the charm. It’s got tradition but don’t shy away from mixin’ things up a bit. It’s a little wild, and that’s what makes it stand out.
And ya know what else? The bottle itself looks real sharp. Nice label, clear as day, and it makes you wanna reach out and grab a bottle just to see what’s inside. I ain’t sayin’ it’s the best whiskey out there, but I sure wouldn’t mind havin’ a glass or two after a long day. It’s got a way of makin’ you relax, y’know?
Now, I ain’t sayin’ you need to run out and buy yourself a bottle, but if you ever get the chance to try Howler Head, I reckon it won’t disappoint. Whether you’re a whiskey lover or just someone lookin’ to try somethin’ new, it’s worth a shot. Plus, you might find yourself with a new favorite drink, and that’s never a bad thing.
So, if you find yourself in the mood for somethin’ a little different, maybe give this Howler Head a try. It’s a bold, banana-flavored bourbon, and it’s got enough personality to keep ya comin’ back for more. That’s all I got for now. Take care and enjoy responsibly!
