About Five Star
Five Star is an affordable blended whiskey produced by Laird & Company, America's oldest distiller renowned for apple brandy, hailing from New Jersey. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), it's available in sizes from 200ml to 1750ml, with the 750ml bottle priced at an unbeatable $6.20, making it one of the best value options in the blended whiskey category. What sets it apart is its smooth, approachable profile from Laird's expert blending of grain spirits and subtle whiskey character, offering reliability without complexity. Ideal for budget-conscious drinkers, casual mixers, or those new to whiskey seeking an everyday sipper. Compared to pricier blends like Canadian whiskies or Scotch, Five Star punches above its weight in affordability and versatility for cocktails, though it lacks the depth of premium expressions—perfect for high-volume mixing where quality meets thrift.
