“Film nerds and whiskey nerds are both extremely opinionated about subjects that are ultimately entirely subjective and based on personal taste. So it kind of makes sense to bring the two worlds together, as Filmland Spirits has done with a trio of retro B-movie-inspired bottles.”
“Somebody send Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez a couple of bottles stat, because this seems like a whiskey aesthetic they would appreciate.”
“The Filmland whiskeys have already received glowing reviews, with each of them earning medals at this year’s San Francisco World’s Spirits Competition, with two of them—the rye and cask-strength bourbon—taking home gold.”
"When it comes to whiskeys and other spirits, it can start to feel like every idea has already been done…But modeling expressions after B movies and creating associated storyboards, scripts, and trailers—that's a new one. Filmland Spirits is a new company that approaches whiskey production much like making a feature film.”
"We’ve seen movie-themed whiskies before...but Filmland is going the extra step of crafting entire narratives around each whiskey, with character details and trailers available on their website. And to be fair, who doesn’t like to curl up with a healthy pour and a quality film?”
"If you aren’t already sure how important ethos is when constructing a quality spirit from the ground up, then just take a look at the awards Filmland’s whiskeys have racked up already, earning two gold medals and a silver medal from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition this year.”
“Who doesn’t love to sip their drinks with a good movie? Although you can’t exactly bring booze inside the theater, we can enjoy films and TV shows at home. Just launch your favorite streaming service and pour a glass or more of these offerings from Filmland Spirits”
“Filmland Spirits is a brand new whiskey house dedicated to bringing together Hollywood imagery and fine American whiskeys. The result is this fun collection of whiskeys that would indeed look cool on any back bar. But we all know what’s in the bottle is most important, and Filmland’s trio of expressions does not disappoint.”
“Having tasted this whiskey and having talked to you about the brand and having seen the passion that you’ve put into this, I think Brad and I would both say ‘that'll do’ to both of you as well. Something tells me that this won’t our last conversation, it’s really rare that we get someone on the podcast this passionate about the things we love on here so you guys have an open invitation.”

“Featuring gorgeous labels and attractively designed bottles, along with highly detailed theming that will appeal to anyone who loves cinema and B-movies in particular—that’s me, 100%.”
“Movie buffs will appreciate the colorful, B-movie poster styled labels and cinematically themed expressions from Filmland. Delicious, and the over-the-top label makes the bottle look great on any bar cart.”
A grown-up ghoulish drink is the perfect way to complete your Halloween spread.
“It’s a diamond in the rough, it is that perfect point for me that is viscous and has that nice mouth feel.”
“You did a really, really good job bringing forward some of the notes that some people don’t normally bring forward..that toffee is right there, like Werther’s Original.”
“The juice itself is quite tasty. Medium-bodied with a decent amount of char (#4) and a classic grain bill (75% corn, 21% rye and 4% malted barley), this is an easy-going bourbon. Great for highballs, but also really nice served neat.”

“I’ve admitted to being a design snob, and sometimes,I just like to reward good artwork. That’s the case here.”
“For this Maple Bourbon Cold Brew cocktail, I love this brand of small batch bourbon whiskey (Filmland Spirits Moonlight Mayhem! Bourbon).”
