SILVER HILL, Ala., Oct. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- This fall, Clyde May's is launching a Special Reserve whiskey, the first line extension in the brand's history, which will be available for sale in limited quantity. Clyde May's Special Reserve reflects the same heritage that made Clyde May's the official State Spirit of Alabama.

Clyde May's Special Reserve is based on original recipes created by Clyde himself. Three distinct higher-proof Alabama-style whiskies were created to characterize the best features of five to six year-old bourbon stock. The bourbon is aged up to six years and finished non-cold filtered with a slight hint of apple, in the Alabama style. The final liquid was bottled at 110 proof, and will be available in different lots, each exhibiting subtle variation and tasting notes.

Over the past year, Clyde May's Whiskey has also implemented a program that allows retail partners to create bespoke editions of Clyde May's Special Reserve, drawing from a selection of hand-selected barrels. These barrels were organized into three distinct lots. The lots reflect the finest expressions of Clyde May's Whiskey and can be mixed by retail partners according to taste. Clyde May's intends to expand this program in the coming years.
