Revel Stoke 'Hardcore' Roasted Apple Flavored Whiskey
Revel Stoke 'Hardcore' Roasted Apple Flavored Whiskey is a 35% ABV (70 proof) flavored whiskey in a 750mL bottle — roasted apple flavors layered over a Canadian whisky base built from rye, corn and barley malt, triple-distilled in copper stills and aged three years in charred white oak. From Phillips Distilling in Princeton, Minnesota, Revel Stoke rejects the pretentious tradition of mainstream whiskey in favor of high-energy celebration, and Hardcore is autumn in a glass: sweet, slightly tart roasted apple with a savory depth and a warming finish.

Roasted Apple, With a Real Whisky Backbone
Revel Stoke has been the mischief-maker of Canadian whisky since 2000, and Hardcore is one of its signature plays: genuine whisky strength at 35% ABV behind big, unapologetic roasted-apple flavor. The apple reads sweet and slightly tart at first, then turns savory — roasted depth, toasted oak, a gentle hint of caramel — before a medium-bodied, slightly spicy finish that keeps it from ever feeling cloying.

Tasting Notes
Nose: fresh-roasted apple, toasted oak, a whisper of caramel. Palate: medium-bodied and harmonious — sweet-tart apple up front, savory roasted depth, mild spice underneath. Finish: warm, smooth, gently spicy.
How to Enjoy
Built for good times: chill it in the freezer and pour ice-cold shots, drink it over plenty of ice, or give cocktails and boilermakers a roasted-apple kick — it is a natural in an apple-forward highball or spiked cider.
