GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — In the midst of the holiday season, many people put their hosting skills up to the test, and some may be looking for that missing piece to liven up the party.

Duke & Dame Whiskey started as an idea between friends at a bar in south Florida. The two, including Co-Founder Amani Macaulay, said they wanted to redefine the whiskey drinking experience with the liquor's popularity growing. That's why they created Duke & Dame Salted Caramel Flavored Whiskey.

Macaulay says his whiskey offers amazing flavor without sacrificing the quality and complexity typically associated with premium whiskeys.

The company's whiskey as they describe it "has a robust salted caramel flavor and just the right amount of sweetness". They say the whiskey can be sipped neat or enjoyed in a cocktail.
