Space-Aged Bourbon Offered By Mystic Galactic Is Backed By NFTs
Bourbon enthusiasts now have the chance to buy space-aged whiskey according to Mystic Galactic, a new firm based in North Carolina. This bourbon will age in space as opposed to ordinary whiskey, which is loaded into barrels before being allowed to mature in storage. For fans of bourbon, it’s an intriguing notion, and considering how the environment affects the beverage, one can only speculate about how it will taste.
A high-wheat mash made from local grains and water is one of its constituents. The whiskey will age for a minimum of three years on Earth before being carried to space in barrels for an additional year, according to the business.
However, given the company is only getting started, you will need to wait a little longer to sample this beverage. To date, it has collaborated with the state of North Carolina and many private spaceflight businesses to bring this concept to life. You can reserve one of the 1,000–1,500 bottles that will be produced by going to the official website.
NFTs Will Track The Mystic Galactic Bottles
After you pay, you’ll get an NFT certificate that attests to the bottle’s ownership and authenticity. The finished item, a 750 ml bottle of Mystic Galactic whiskey packaged in a flight box with your NFT code on it, may then be obtained by exchanging the NFT for it. A 50-ml sample of the bourbon will also be given to you; you can choose to drink it now or preserve the bottle for later. Two commemorative tasting glasses, a piece of one of the space barrels, a specialized tool for opening the unique bottle, and more are also included in the package.
However, you can track your bottle as it orbits the planet by downloading an app to your smartphone. Owners will also be permitted access to the launch and recovery ceremonies. But these bottles won’t be cheap, so be prepared to spend $75,000 to get a chance at owning one of these unique treasures.
Tracking high-end booze brands via NFTs is nothing new. Leading companies like Johnnie Walker, Hennessy, Glenfiddich, and many others use BlockBar’s services to keep track of their preferred libation.
