So, what's the deal with this fancy new booze? It was co-founded by Beyoncé herself, crafted in partnership with Moët Hennessy and renowned master distiller Bill Lumsden. The site describes it as, "Here the complexity of rye is married with the elegance of malted barley. Finished to perfection in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, a harmony of spice with sublime hints of fruit." Yum! And get this, it's already an award-winning brand!

Beyoncé Names Whiskey Line After Great-Grandpa, Son

But why SirDavis? Well, turns out it's named after Beyoncé's great-grandfather, whose first name was Davis. She shared her intentions in a press release, saying, "I've always been drawn to the power and confidence I feel when drinking quality whisky and wanted to invite more people to experience that feeling... When I discovered that my great-grandfather had been a moonshine man, it felt like my love for whisky was fated. SirDavis is a way for me to pay homage to him, uniting us through a new shared legacy."

And let's not forget about little Sir, Beyoncé's only son. It's all in the name, folks!

On the website, Beyoncé shares a letter to Davis Hogue, who was a successful moonshiner in the American South during Prohibition. "I feel you in the landscapes. Your laughter rolling in the rye. What songs did you sing? What gaps did you fill? Great-grandfather, did you dream of me? Your legacy is a force that drives me... For you, I raise my glass to legacy."

Oh, and there are specialty cocktails too, like the Honey Bee, Texas Buckin', Houston, Davis Old Fashion, and more.
