The story

The story behind Atomic Red

Atomic Red starts as aged Canadian whisky, distilled and barreled north of the border, then blended and bottled in Boston by M.S. Walker, a family owned wine and spirits house that has been at it since 1931. The base is a traditional Canadian grain whisky, corn and rye in the mix, aged in barrel before anything else happens to it. Then comes the cinnamon, and a lot of it.

One correction we make at the counter most weeks: Atomic Red is not a bourbon. At 33% ABV, 66 proof, with added cinnamon flavoring, it cannot legally carry that label. It is a flavored Canadian whisky, and it does that job with a sweet, peppery heat that holds up in cold weather and cold drinks alike.

Atomic Red questions, answered

Is Atomic Red a bourbon?
No. Atomic Red is a cinnamon flavored Canadian whisky bottled at 33% ABV, 66 proof. Added flavoring and the lower proof mean it cannot legally be labeled bourbon, despite how it is often shelved.
What proof is Atomic Red Cinnamon Whiskey?
Atomic Red is 66 proof, or 33% ABV, across all sizes. That is lower than standard 80 proof whiskey, which is why the cinnamon heat reads sweet rather than harsh.
How do you drink Atomic Red?
Chill it and shoot it neat, pour it over ice to soften the pepper, or mix one part to three parts hard cider. It also works in hot cocoa and hot toddies when the weather turns.
Who makes Atomic Red Cinnamon Whiskey?
