Legion M introduced Archenemy Space Whiskey, inspired by their 2020 movie of the same name.
Archenemy Space Whiskey is a blend of two straight bourbon lots distilled in Indiana and bottled in California by Lost Republic Distilling Co. The first distilled in 2012 and the second in 2015 — stored in traditional 53-gallon white oak barrels with a #2 char and unfiltered.
“Everything we do is with the Legion M community of fans and creatives in mind. It seemed like a logical next step to bring the Space Whiskey from Archenemy to life. We wanted the flavor of this bourbon to pack a powerful punch, channeling the cosmic themes of the film to create a blend that seems otherworldly.” said Legion M co-founder and CEO, Paul Scanlan.
The film, Archenemy, which stars Joe Manganiello, follows Max Fist (Manganiello), a local drunk who claims to be a superhero from the planet Chromium. He tells anyone who will listen that he was pulled into a wormhole, falling through time and space, and dropped to earth without any of his powers. No one pays any attention to Max except a teenager named Hamster (Skylan Brooks) who can’t get enough of Max’s stories. When Hamster and his sister (Zolee Griggs) get in trouble with a vicious drug syndicate led by The Manager (Glenn Howerton), Max takes to the streets as a brutal vigilante hellbent on proving himself as the hero no one believes him to be.
Last September, Legion M launched Cheddar Goblin Mac & Cheese, a nod to their psychedelic horror flick, Mandy, starring Nicolas Cage.
