East Hartford distiller Onyx Spirits Co. said it is expanding its whiskey making operation, and will soon release its biggest batch yet.
Onyx is expanding its barrel-aging operation to approximately 400 barrels. Its newest whiskey, Secret Stash Reserve, will be sold for about $35 each — a lower price than two previous smaller batches, which were bottled separately, company spokeswoman Rachael Forker said Wednesday.
The company released its first whiskey, Secret Stash — made by barrel aging its moonshine — a year ago in a limited batch of 33 barrels. Each contained 33, 750-milliliter bottles, priced at around $60 each.
The new whiskey will be available in stores and establishments starting this month.
