Fior Scotch is a super-premium, hand-crafted, small-batch blend of Highland and Speyside scotches. Launched in 2023 by Marine Major Eric Dominijanni, Fior is the first and only Black-owned scotch and the first and only U.S. veteran-owned scotch.

Major Dominijanni isn’t your typical Marine or scotch enthusiast. He is also a classically trained chef who studied in the U.S., Thailand and Singapore and was featured on Throwdown with Bobby Flay. After a 20 year military career as an Assault Amphibian Officer with three tours in Iraq and two in Okinawa, he started to decant the remaining drams of particularly good scotches into what would become his “Infinity Bottle.” Eventually, the blend became so good that he didn’t want to change it. To fulfill his dream, Major Dominijanni tapped industry talent James Landis, known for successfully launching and growing brands like Hpnotiq. They were able to help recreate the taste, aroma, and smoothness of that original infinity blend, which is now Fior. The result is a truly exceptional scotch that is perfect for sipping neat or enjoying in a classic cocktail.

Fior has earned a number of impressive accolades since its 2023 inception, including a double gold medal at both the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and New York World Spirits Competition, a 93 rating at the The New York International Spirits Competition, a gold medal from Santé Magazine and a Platinum rating at the Ascot Awards.

With every bottle purchased, Fior donates to veterans' causes, including Operation Gratitude. Fior Scotch is currently available in stores in New York, South Carolina, Texas and Georgia and online. For more on Fior Scotch, please visit www.fiorscotch.com.
