BLACK SHEEP 0% Whisky Alternative marks Black Sheep Brewery's first move into the spirits category, developed through a partnership with Kahol Spirits, whose technology underpins the production. The approach is designed to retain the esters and phenols present in the source Scotch, which the brand says are responsible for the smoky, woody character of the original spirit. The stated aim is to produce an alcohol-free spirit with the mouthfeel and bite that the brand found absent from most existing non-alcoholic alternatives.
