Rod’s whisky, Wolfie’s Whisky, which he founded himself, draws inspiration from his Scottish heritage. The brand’s website describes the whisky as featuring flavours like “cinnamon swirls” and scents of “apple pie”.

Wolfie’s Whisky further promises fans “a finale of fresh citrus peel and spiced orchard fruits, leaving behind an encore of charred oak and lingering vanilla”.

In his Instagram post, Rod confirmed Wolfie’s Whisky will also feature at his Las Vegas residency. The official Wolfie’s Whisky account posted: “One week to go until we kick things off in style in Las Vegas with @colosseumatcp and @caesarspalace. Our wonderful Wolfie’s Whisky will also be on hand for a wee pre-show cocktail or two!”
