BEST CELEBRITY WHISKEY 2019. Slipknot has collaborated with the award winning Iowa-based Cedar Ridge Distillery to bring the world an original whiskey rich in Iowa roots, No. 9 Iowa Whiskey Reserve. Made with homegrown Iowa corn featuring a sweet and spicy flavor and finished with a bold flavor at a higher 99% proof, Slipknot No. 9 Iowa Whiskey Reserve furthers the quality of the No. 9 - maturing an extra year to allow more of the flavor to rock through.
SLIPKNOT and Cedar Ridge Distillery - two groups of people born and raised in Iowa, and committed to quality and hard work. We collaborated on “No. 9 Whiskey”, which in addition to Iowa corn, gets some extra spice from its rye content. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Live life, and always be safe. Cheers, - Shawn “Clown” Crahan, Slipknot founder
