Alendel Whiskey Fabric
24 colourways, chenille, 56 in wide. Every swatch and every Alendel specification, from the workroom that sews it in Fort Lauderdale and installs it from Miami to Palm Beach.
A 56 in chenille in 53% polyester, 42% acrylic and 5% viscose with 24 colourways
Alendel lists Whiskey as a chenille in 24 colourways, in 53% polyester, 42% acrylic and 5% viscose, at 56 in wide. The card is Aegean, Bahama, Cement, Cilantro, Cotton, Dolphin, Emerald, Gazelle plus 16 more; Alendel files them under blue, grey, green, white, brown and purple. 23 of the 24 flagged in stock by Alendel. It sits in Alendel's Cartier & Whiskey Book.
The 56 in width runs up the roll, so panels are made of joined widths with the seams hidden in the pleats, and a Roman shade under about 50 inches finished is cut from a single width. The viscose is what gives it the lustre; it is lined for the sun and kept out of wet rooms. Alendel lists the weight at 1.23 lb per yard, substantial for a chenille, so the track or rod is sized to carry it. Care is WA-P (washable or dry clean). It carries CAL 117, NFPA 260 and UFAC Class 1, the upholstery flammability listings; and FMVSS 302, the automotive interior test. Every colourway is listed as Oeko-Tex. Finish: Soil & Stain Repellent. Country of origin, as Alendel lists it: Turkey.
What Whiskey does at the window, and what it does not
Best use
Whiskey works both ways from the same bolt: pinch pleat, Euro pleat or ripplefold panels in the main rooms and flat, relaxed or hobbled Roman shades on the secondary windows, so the kitchen, study and baths read as one scheme with the living room.
Light and privacy
An opaque cloth, so privacy is complete when it is closed. The light is decided by the lining: light-filtering keeps a living room glowing, thermal or bump interlining adds body and quiet, blackout turns a bedroom dark. Whiskey is lined in every case; on west glass we line generously so the face does not fade.
Cloth and care
53% polyester, 42% acrylic and 5% viscose; 1.23 lb per yard; care WA-P (washable or dry clean); 20,000 rubs abrasion. Viscose gives the lustre and is kept out of wet rooms. Listed as Oeko-Tex. Finish: Soil & Stain Repellent.
Limitations
At 56 in a wide panel is made of joined widths; the seams sit inside the pleats. The weight needs a track or rod sized for it; a light decorative rod will bow. 1 of the 24 colour is not flagged in stock, so that colour is a mill order with a longer lead time; we confirm stock before anything is cut.

Width, content, repeat, care code, fire listings and weight per yard are Alendel's own listing for each colourway, captured from its trade catalogue; the stock flag is Alendel's public availability filter on the day we read it and is confirmed against the order before anything is cut. We bring the Alendel books to the consultation.
Where Whiskey works here
Whiskey is the kind of cloth our drapery clients in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Boca Raton and Palm Beach order for the secondary windows as well as the main ones: panels in the living room, flat or relaxed Roman shades in the kitchen, study and baths, from one bolt so the rooms read together. Humidity and sun decide the lining; over a bathtub we advise a moisture-tolerant weave, and on a west window we line generously.
For the same use, compare Whiskey with Cartier (velvet, 55 in, 28 colourways), Mermaid (chenille, 56 in, 29 colourways) and Cozy (chenille, 55 in, 57 colourways); the table on each page lists the width, content, care code, fire listings and weight side by side.
Whiskey: frequently asked
How many colours does Alendel Whiskey come in?
24 colourways by Alendel's listing, 23 of the 24 flagged in stock by Alendel. Every one is on this page with its swatch, colour code and FB item number, and we bring the shortlist to the consultation so the colour is judged in your own light.
Is Whiskey Oeko-Tex?
Alendel lists every Whiskey colourway as Oeko-Tex, the textile-chemistry listing. Where a client or a project wants the paperwork we request it from Alendel before the cloth is ordered.
Is Whiskey washable?
Alendel gives it care code WA-P (washable or dry clean), so yes: it can be washed, and dry cleaned as well where the code allows it. The code is in the specification table below for every colourway.
What does Whiskey cost made up as Roman shades and draperies?
It is quoted from the yardage: the width and height of the window, the fullness, the repeat if there is one, the lining and the track or rod. The pricing page has real numbers for sheers, motorized tracks and blackout draperies, and a quote for Whiskey follows from a measure. Ask for a price with the button above and we come back with a figure, not a range.
