Hoste 2024 Gold Fashioned features a Hazmat Bourbon!

Chicago, IL – October 18, 2024 – Hoste Cocktails is thrilled. They are releasing the highly anticipated 2024 edition of the Gold Fashioned. This exclusive, limited-edition Old Fashioned cocktail brings a new level of depth and complexity. It features a carefully curated blend of rare aged bourbons and ryes. This blend showcases Hoste’s dedication to innovation. Now in its fourth year, the Gold Fashioned features 9-Year Kentucky Bourbon. This bourbon is finished in Oloroso sherry casks—a first for the brand. It is paired with select 10-Year and 6-Year Indiana Straight Rye Whiskies.

The Gold Fashioned blends these world-class spirits with Hoste’s signature saffron bitters. This is a proprietary blend of top-tier botanicals, including Afghan saffron, Tahitian vanilla, Ecuadorian cacao, French gentian, and Seville orange peel. The 2024 Gold Fashioned is sweetened with fair trade Demerara sugar from Malawi. It is finished with a custom orange zest atomizer. This combination offers an aromatic, multi-sensory tasting experience.

Key Ingredients of the 2024 Gold Fashioned:

  • 9-Year Kentucky Bourbon: Drawn from rare ~140-proof “hazmat barrels” and finished in Oloroso sherry casks, this bourbon delivers a bold, smooth flavor profile.
  • 10-Year and 6-Year High Rye Whiskies from Indiana: Adds warming, spicy notes that complement the mellow bourbon flavors.
  • Hoste Saffron Bitters: Infused with saffron, vanilla, cacao, and citrus for a unique twist on the classic Old Fashioned profile.
  • Fair Trade Demerara Syrup: Unrefined Demerara from Malawi offers smooth, subtle sweetness.
  • Custom Orange Zest Atomizer: Delivers a bright, citrusy garnish, enhancing the aroma and experience of each sip.

Hoste co-founder Robert Haynes shared, “This year’s release of the Gold Fashioned pushes boundaries, with the Oloroso sherry cask finish adding new layers of stone fruit and plum notes to complement the rich rye spice.” Fellow co-founder Jordan Tepper added, “We’re committed to sourcing exceptional barrels years in advance, ensuring that each Gold Fashioned release delivers a memorable, elevated experience.”

The Gold Fashioned has consistently earned high praise since its inception. It even received a Double Gold at the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Its limited availability each year makes it a must-have for whiskey enthusiasts looking for a unique, ready-to-pour Old Fashioned experience. Perfect for celebrations and memorable occasions, the 2024 Gold Fashioned exemplifies Hoste’s vision of delivering world-class cocktails.

The 2024 Gold Fashioned is available starting October 18, 2024. Secure yours at HosteCocktails.com or follow Hoste Cocktails on social media for updates.
