OriginalBOS, Whiskey & Wine Chillers with a Cause

Introducing the Arctic Core

Jan 15, 2014 | 0 comments

Some of you may have noticed our packaging changed a bit this holiday season. There’s a lot of little changes we made, like the laser engraving on your Balls of Steel whiskey chillers (how cool is that?!) but the most eyebrow-raising change might be the portion of the label that reads “Arctic Core.” What is the Arctic Core, you ask? Well, it’s what makes us the original stainless steel ice champs. It’s basically a reengineering of our original Balls of Steel to include a secret sauce (for lack of a better term) organic phase-change material within the center of the...

Balls of Steel Baking

Jan 10, 2014 | 0 comments

Sometimes, we find ourselves wanting a more creative way to enjoy our whiskey around here. Our PR Coordinator is an advocate of baking with booze (we’re not sure what it says about her) and so she set out to find a recipe worth sharing with you all. She found Bourbon Balls, the perfect treat for grown-ups with a semi-sweet flavor and your favorite bourbon taste. Plus, they perfectly compliment the spherical theme we’ve got going here! BAKER’S NOTE: This recipe obviously calls for bourbon, but I happened to already have Irish whiskey on hand, so I cheated (because as much...

Time to Take a Stand, Ladies

Hey laaadiees! We know you’ve been loving Balls of Steel and the Keep it Straight Up Tee for the men in your life, but what about you? We find that many people who reach out to us are women who have husbands, fathers, sons, uncles, nephews or any version of far-reaching family who’ve been affected by testicular cancer and want to get involved in the fight more extensively than within their own families. The only problem is that there’s not much of a platform for women to provide support on a larger scale (don’t get us wrong, the...

Why Whiskey Rocks Just Don't Rock

A (Very) Brief Education in Whiskey Coolers Every whiskey drinker loves the taste of whiskey, right? And so that’s why we’re on a constant search for how to make the best stainless steel ice there is out there. But what about your other whiskey chiller options. A lot of people ask about the difference between Balls of Steel and whiskey rocks. It’s a pretty reasonable question, but the answer is surprisingly simple – they’re hardly in the same realm. The biggest difference is of course their physical makeup. Whiskey rocks are made of soap stone and Balls of Steel...

Add This To Your To-Do List

Dec 17, 2013 | 0 comments

We know you've heard it all before, but . . . We all compile a monthly to-do list, which mostly consists of tedious tasks like paying bills and mowing the lawn (though around here we occasionally throw “glass of whiskey” on our list after a long work week). You usually run through these tasks without much planning as part of a habitual routine. And though you do these practical tasks day in and day out, do you ever remember to stop and do something solely for your own wellbeing? Our mission here at OriginalBOS is to raise awareness for...
