In a release from the brand, the whiskey is considered the “embodiment” of the Hell House cabin, which is where founding members Ronnie Van Zant, Gary Rossington and Allen Collins wrote many of the songs many have come to love. The cabin still stands as a historical marker in Green Cove Springs.
Current band member Johnny Van Zant attributes the band’s enduring popularity to the “legacy of Lynyrd Skynyrd and what it stands for, what the fans are all about. There’s nothing like getting out there, playing a great show with Skynyrd, seeing people love this music, and now being able to raise a glass of our very own Hell House Whiskey together. It’s a toast to the timeless spirit of rock and roll.”
