On Thursday, The World Whiskey Society expanded its catalog with a 12-year-old Indiana rye whiskey finished in ex-awamori casks, a technique that the brand claims is a first. Distilled from long-grain Indica rice in Okinawa, Japan, awamori combines the floral palate of sake with the higher-proof bite of shochu. The regional spirit is typically stored in clay pots but sometimes matures in Japanese oak barrels.

Perhaps you're one of the many people who've switched from milk to dark chocolate because the latter has less sugar and more antioxidants. But before you tear into that candy bar or hit the kitchen to start cooking up a homemade treat (like our salted caramel recipe), there's something you should know. Your dark chocolate may be hiding an even darker secret. It's known to contain two heavy metals — cadmium and lead — that can cause harmful health effects. Pregnant people and children are at higher risk.

But one term that hasn’t gotten much use is “regenerative”—that is, until now, with the launch of a pair of whiskeys released as a collaboration between Brother’s Bond and WhistlePig.Beyoncé Is Releasing a New Rye Whiskey, and We Got a First Taste

After eight years of testing dark chocolate, a new study reveals many products were contaminated with lead and cadmium — two heavy metals toxic to human health.
