South Kingstown’s Sons of Liberty Limited Edition Uprising Single Malt – Pedro Ximénez Sherry Finish was rated 93.6 points at the 2018 International Whisky Competition held in Las Vegas earlier this month. With 93.6 points, Uprising PX took first place honors for Best American Whiskey, Best American Single Malt Whiskey and Best Small Batch Whiskey. It was the highest-rated American whiskey in the competition regardless of age or category. Battle Cry Single Malt Sauternes Finish took third place in the American Single Malt category with 92.1 points. The recent accolades now put Sons of Liberty into triple digits with their 100th award since the company launched in December 2011. “We’re ecstatic to say the least,” Mike Reppucci, Sons of Liberty founder, said of the results. “We strive to bottle the highest-quality products possible and are always finding ways to improve them, but to rank as high as we did against some huge names is unbelievable.”
