Honey Whisky Liqueur

Honey whisky liqueur blends whisky with honey and, in some styles, additional spices and herbs, producing a rounded, mellow sweetness built on a whisky backbone. It is smoother and considerably sweeter than straight whisky. It is used both to sweeten and to add honeyed depth to whisky-based cocktails.
