The Holidays, Bottled
Bird Dog built its reputation on flavored whiskey done right — and Gingerbread is the seasonal showpiece. The base is smooth Kentucky whiskey; the flavor is all holiday baking: ginger snap, cinnamon, and nutmeg wrapped around vanilla and oak. Reviewers (Tastings.com, 88 points) note cinnamon-teddy-graham and toasted-hazelnut character — a smooth, easy-drinking seasonal pour.

How to Enjoy
Sip neat or on the rocks for the full cookie effect, or mix it into seasonal cocktails — a Gingerbread Old Fashioned or a holiday mule with ginger beer and lime. It also works drizzled into coffee or hot chocolate for a fireside nightcap.
