What Makes Von Payne Black Different

Let's start with what you can't miss: the bottle. That heavy metal gargoyle pour spout isn't there for show. It's a nod to the rebel spirit inside the decanter-style glass. This whiskey has attitude.

But the real story is what's inside. Von Payne Black is a premium blended whiskey infused with natural black currant. Not artificial flavoring. Not some lab-created essence. Natural black currant.

Here's something most people don't know: black currant was actually forbidden to grow in the United States until 2003. The government banned it because of concerns about threats to the logging industry. Now it's back, and it's showing up in one of the most unique whiskeys you'll find.

Black currant is a super-fruit packed with antioxidants and vitamin C. When you blend it with a three-year aged whiskey, you get something that defies expectations.

The Flavor Profile That Changes Everything

Von Payne Black pours a deep ruby red. The black currant gives it this rich color with amber hints from the barrel aging. It catches light differently than anything else on your shelf.

On the nose, you get robust currant berry and brown sugar. There are hints of oak and cinnamon hiding underneath. It's complex without being overwhelming.

The first sip hits you with vibrant berry. Slightly tart, slightly sweet. The oaky tones come through next, giving it depth and character. The finish? Long and warm without any of that harsh burn.

Here's the thing: if it burns, it's not premium. Von Payne Black goes down silky smooth. Light to medium-bodied, full on the palate. No gasoline aftertaste. No need to chase it with water or ice (unless that's your preference).

This is 90 proof whiskey that drinks like it has nothing to prove.

Just One Bite...
Just One Bite...

The black currant infusion makes it versatile. You can enjoy it neat and really taste the complexity. You can serve it chilled for a smoother, slightly sweeter experience. Or you can get creative with cocktails.

The point is: you're choosing quality. You're being intentional about what you drink and how you drink it. That's what 2026 is all about.


Award-Winning Quality

Von Payne Black isn't flying under the radar. The industry has noticed. The awards prove it:

  • Double Gold and Best of the Best from the International Women's Spirits Competition (99 points)

  • 95-point Gold from NYISC (2023)

  • Multiple Platinum awards from the SIP Consumer Awards (2022, 2023, 2024)

These aren't participation trophies. These are recognitions from serious spirits competitions. When expert judges consistently score Von Payne Black at the top, it confirms what your taste buds already know.
