Lehigh Invaded with Scary-good whiskies this Halloween: J. Mattingly 1845 Welcomes Fall with New Whiskey Offerings
Scary-good whiskies this Halloween: J. Mattingly 1845 Welcomes Fall with New Whiskey Offerings
J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery is debuting scary-good whiskies this fall, with its first fall spiced Bourbon 31 Blended Bourbon and the ability to customize your own whiskey for your Halloween festivities through its J. Mattingly 1845 craft your bottle program.
Screenshot
Bourbon 31 Blended Bourbon is a play on the brand’s Bourbon 30 Bourbon brand and this limited-edition release was created for the Halloween season.
Bourbon 31 is a blend of three whiskies which have all undergone J. Mattingly 1845’s Double Staving™ process and the blend consists of 51 percent Bourbon, 29 percent Light Whiskey and 20 percent Rye Whiskey. Double Staving is a proprietary process used by J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery that gives the whiskey inside the barrels additional surface exposure to charred barrel staves to impart more flavor and color.
The Double Staved Classic Bourbon used in this blend has just scored a 96 from famed Whiskey Bible author Jim Murray.
The Bourbon 31 Blended Bourbon was created by J. Mattingly 1845’s team of expert blenders to reflect the flavors typically associated with fall. “When we blended these three whiskies, we were looking for a flavor profile that reflects flavors typically associated with fall, such as pumpkin and cinnamon while matching the light-hearted fun we’re having by changing the brand name from Bourbon 30 to Bourbon 31 to celebrate the Halloween season,” said Harry Richart, president, J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery.
Tasting notes for this bourbon describe it as having a nose of nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla and walnut, with the flavors of brown sugar, cinnamon, and fall baking spices on the palate. On the finish, pumpkin bread, baker’s chocolate and seasoned oak are prevalent.
Bourbon 31 is available online and at the J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery in Frankfort, KY. Suggested retail pricing is $60 for a 750 mL and it is 98 proof.
J. Mattingly 1845 Custom Whiskey Program is the “Choose Your Own Adventure” of the whiskey world by allowing the buyer to choose between double staved™ bourbon, light whiskey or rye whiskey recipes, select their bottle shape, customize their own label, and even choose their own wax color from every color of the rainbow! This program is available online and in person at the Distillery and can result in some frighteningly fun labels and Halloween-themed wax colors. Imagine expressing your innermost devilish (or angelic) thoughts on the bourbon bottle you give your favorite boo.
Pricing for the custom bottles start at $120 for a 750 mL bottle and shipping is available to 46 states.
About J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery

In 2010 Jeff Mattingly took up the family mantle and started his own craft bourbon business. Today, Jeff’s son Cameron has joined the team as Vice President of Production, continuing the legacy into the latest generation for J. Mattingly Distillery 1845 in Frankfort, Kentucky.

CarnEvil
The Clowns of CarnEVIL are a unique Company, outcasts, rejected and let go from a former show that they have resided with before. The reasons these clowns were let go is not exactly known, however rumor has it these individuals have something odd and not quite right about them, wreaking havoc and turmoil wherever they go. Serving up tricks that make even the bravest of men jump and tremble, and treats that have been rotting for some time, making those with even the strongest of stomachs queasy.
What started out as a simple traveling Halloween carnival featuring clowns, has turned into something more akin to a twisted and evil horror show.
Step right up!

Dystopia
In a distant but close future, exactly two centuries from now in 2222, a lot has changed in society, or what’s left of it. Unfortunately, government has devolved to nothing as technology and media made the last surviving humans turn to a more rogue lifestyle with an obsession of who they are not.
Anthropomorphic, obsessing over their ancient heritage, deeming themselves deities or other bizarre avatars, everyone remaining have done drastic things over the years to turn themselves as physically realistically possible into the online personas they’ve claimed to be and match their virtual profile pictures. These individuals had been named ‘The Rust Rogues.’
Any human they find who hasn’t been corrupted is an otherworldly sight to them, and some tight-knit communities respond to strangers with nothing, acceptance, or drive them away, generally with fear and noise. Those in the community who hate sound don’t thrive as successfully as those who love it and show it.
Strength does come in numbers, which has made the more extroverted Rust Rogues gather in smaller communities, each one having their own different morals, hunting strategies and hierarchies.
Within each group, they’re all finding ways to stay alive and well in the harsh world they’re forced to call home.

Port of Call
The scallywags here may seem friendly, but cross just one of them, and you might end up at the bottom of Davy Jones’ Locker.
Dorney Park’s Halloween Haunt, is back Sept. 16 – Oct. 29
The Hollow
The Hollow captures the spirit of Halloween with dazzling décor and eye-catching pumpkin displays of all shapes and sizes. Visit while sunlight shines and it’s sure to make any jack-o-lantern smile.
As darkness falls, mist rolls into The Hollow, bringing a still, eeriness to the once friendly Halloween pumpkin patch. As you make your way through the winding vines, you find yourself face-to-face with ghoulish, flickering pumpkin carvings. Did that one just move? Step in for a closer look and find out if these pumpkins really are alive or if it’s just your imagination playing tricks on you.
Dorney Park’s Halloween Haunt, is back Sept. 16 – Oct. 29
The Lair
Each night of Halloween Haunt you can journey into the catacombs and tombs of the most feared creatures of Transylvania to bear witness to the abomination of the children of the night. Over a century’s worth of blood starved vampires lurk around each corner of their daytime prison as they wait for the curtain of darkness to shadow their search for the liquid of the living. The damned and demonic hellions with needle sharp fangs call you to quench their need for fresh blood.
Watch your neck and clutch your garlic before you join the ranks of the barbaric and ravenous living dead in this haunted house. Only you can discover the truth of THE LAIR.
