OUR STORY

 

I've always had a passion for creating hand-made goods that others could enjoy as much as I do. Originally from Iowa, when I moved to Illinois in 2018 I wanted to create items that made me feel at home, while incorporating my hometown roots. Not too long after, a few candles were made and A Whiskey Shot was born. 

I wanted to be sure that I was using the highest quality materials in all of our products. Below, you will find a brief description of our components & processes.

Our 8 oz candles have roughly 50 hours of burn time.

Our 16 oz candles have roughly 100 hours of burn time.

Our melts have roughly 15-18 1/2oz cubes in each jar.

Our wicks are made from a braided cotton wick with paper threads woven into the cotton. The construction of the wick is designed to ensure a consistent burn. All of our wicks are lead & zinc free.

All of our wax-based products are used with an all-natural soy wax that is grown & produced from USA soybeans. It gives a smooth and creamy appearance - additionally, put up against all other waxes, you'll find that ours has the best fragrance throw.

All fragrances that we use have been performance tested in soy wax to ensure they blend well, and offer an even & strong fragrance throw. All are made from a combination of fragrance oils & essential oils.
