Blackened Sour

I recently had the opportunity to try out Blackened American Whiskey - a project by THE MAN, Dave Pickerell (formerly of Maker’s Mark and Whistle Pig Whiskey).  Its 56% bourbon and 43% rye and 1% corn, finished in black brandy casks. I figured it would hold up really well in a stiff riff on a spicy NY Sour.
