Epic Guide to Fireball Cinnamon Whisky

Fireball's slogan is “tastes like heaven, burns like hell”, and just one sip will show you why.

You may have seen the red demon breathing red hot fire on the bottle in your local liquor store. This smooth whisky with a fiery kick of red hot cinnamon is one of the most popular liquors in the US and the world.

Fireball is the #1 shot brand in the U.S.

What is Fireball?

It is a spicy cinnamon-flavored whisky.

It is spelled whisky instead of whiskey because it comes from Canada where whisky is spelled without the letter E.

Yes, there is real natural cinnamon used to make this epic whisky.

There are two different types of Fireball depending on where it is sold.

A bottle/package with Fireball Cinnamon Whisky on the front label is a whisky-based product.

A bottle/product with Fireball Cinnamon on the front of the label without whisky is either malt or wine-based product.

One thing to know is Fire Ball is not technically a whisky. Whiskey is defined as a spirit with at least 40 percent alcohol by volume.

It is technically a specialty distilled spirit owned by the Sazerac company.

What to mix with Fireball?

It is a fantastic mixer! We are sharing some of our favorite mixed drinks below in this post.

Is Fireball Gluten-Free?

Fireball Canadian Whisky is not certified gluten-free. They do not use ingredients that include gluten but they have not been certified as being gluten-free.

They are also releasing a keg that holds five liters and has 3 pour spouts. This is equivalent to 115 shots in 1 container. Look for FireKegs at your favorite local stores.

There is also a Firebox which is a dispenser that holds two 1.75 Liter pouches. This is currently a limited release in late Summer /early Fall.

The availability of different sizes and product items may depend on the state that you live in.

They are continually bringing out new products and branded swag. We are thinking about picking up a fiery mule mug, or branded shot glasses for fun co*cktail photos.

When did Fireball come out?

It started as part of the Dr. McGillicuddy Line.

When it was purchased by the Sazerac Company they refined the name of the product and marketed it hard.

It really became popular in the US around the late 2000's. While it has been around since 1984 it didn't become the cult liquor it is today until The Sazerac Company bought it and really pushed the branding.

You may also find these cinnamon whiskey products in your local stores: Catch Fire Cinnamon Flavored Whisky, Jim Beam Kentucky Fire, Sinfire Apple Cinnamon Whisky, Jack Daniels Tennessee Fire American Whisky, and Wild Turkey American Honey Sting.

What does Fireball taste like?

Ir tastes like cinnamon candy It is sweet with a strong cinnamon spice flavor.

Where is Fireball made?

It is made at multiple distilleries to keep up with the production needed to continue to meet the growing demand for this epic flavored whiskey.

They do not offer any distillery tours at this time.

Does Fireball go bad?

The only way for it to go bad would be for it to be stored open without a lid for a long period of time.

You may find over time that the flavor changes a tiny bit as the whisky is opened and air gets into the bottle.

There is no need to store the whiskey in the refrigerator or freezer unless you want a chilled cinnamon whisky experience.

It will not freeze unless the temperature is below -12 degrees Fahrenheit.

Is Fireball Vegan?

It is not completely vegan. There is an animal-derived binder in the yeast preparation used to ferment the whisky mash prior to distillation.
