Whiskeysmith Salted Watermelon Flavored Whiskey
Whiskeysmith Salted Watermelon Flavored Whiskey is a 60-proof (30% ABV) flavored whiskey from Whiskeysmith Co. of Fort Collins, Colorado — American whiskey blended with natural watermelon flavor and a touch of salt, a nod to the Southern ritual of salting fresh watermelon, in a 750mL bottle. The Whiskeysmith line, from the Old Elk Distillery family, builds each expression on real American whiskey (a wheated base, per reviewers) and natural flavors — no age statement, just summer in a glass. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

The Sweet Tooth Meets the Whiskey Lover
Whiskeysmith was founded on a simple idea from its twin founders — one loved whiskey, the other had a sweet tooth — and Salted Watermelon might be the purest expression of it. Juicy, handpicked-style watermelon flavor meets a dash of sea salt over an American whiskey backbone, landing as a sweet, refreshing sipper that drinks like the best part of summer. It is the easy-drinking end of the Whiskeysmith range and a natural cocktail base. Browse the Whiskeysmith collection and more flavored whiskey at Del Mesa.
Tasting Notes
Per brand copy carried by retailers: juicy watermelon sweetness balanced by a touch of sea salt, mingled with warm American whiskey. Expect a sweet, fruit-forward palate with the salt lifting the watermelon rather than reading as savory, and a soft whiskey finish.
How to Enjoy
Serve chilled or over ice — this is a porch-and-pool pour. It shines in simple highballs (soda or lemonade), and the watermelon-salt profile makes a fun base for a summer whiskey punch with citrus and mint.
