New Bourbon pays tribute to Predator film
By Nicola CarruthersUS bottler Silver Screen Bottling Company has teamed up with American film studio 20th Century Fox to launch a Bourbon inspired by sci-fi blockbuster Predator.
Dutch Bourbon Whiskey is inspired by the 1987 blockbuster film PredatorThe new expression, called Dutch Bourbon Whiskey, pays homage to the 1987 film’s main character Major Alan ‘Dutch’ Schaefer. In Predator, Schaefer leads an elite band of soldiers on a rescue mission in Central America.
Dutch Bourbon Whiskey is described as “fit for a person on a mission with a bold taste of adventure”. The “full-bodied” whiskey has notes of vanilla, coconut and bergamot.
The design of the label imitates an elite special forces patch and features the targeting crosshairs of an alien-like creature, a military helicopter and a quote from the film – ‘Get to the chopper’.
Dutch Bourbon Whiskey is priced at US$34.99 and available for presale at www.dutchwhiskey.com.
Last month, Silver Screen Bottling Company extended its Star Trek-inspired spirits line with the launch of Montgomery Scott Blended Scotch.
