“When we were tossing the idea around about doing a cinnamon whiskey we knew we had to reach out to the local firefighters, because we’ve had events with them in the past and have been building a relationship with them over the years. That’s why we landed on the name Fire Brigade and the label carries the traditional Maltese cross with the “3907” local Sycamore Twp union designator on it. It’s such a fitting homage to our local heroes.” Josh Engel, spokesperson for March First Brewing and Sycamore Whiskey said. “When we reached out, International Association of Firefighters Local 3907 was very excited to collaborate on this fundraising event and it kind of snowballed from there. We expect a large turnout from local departments all around the city.”
Mark Singer, President of Sycamore Professional Firefighters Local 3907, commented on working with March First and Sycamore Whiskey on this fundraising event. “The Sycamore Township Firefighters Local 3907 is excited to work with March First Brewing and MDA on an exciting event. When we were approached by March First about partnering for a charity event, we knew MDA would be the perfect fit. With the strong partnership the International Association of Fire Fighters has with MDA and the growing partnership with March First and Local 3907 we know this will be a huge success.”
Sycamore Fire Brigade Cinnamon Whiskey is a 68 proof whiskey based on the popular 10 year Sycamore American Whiskey which is flavored with real hand cracked cinnamon sticks. With no artificial flavors Fire Brigade is an all natural and local alternative to the popular national brand. “Expect an exceptionally smooth whiskey with a cinnamon bite” Engel said.
