The finish is long and spice-filled, where tobacco, chocolate, and a hint of chili pepper blend with a sweet undertone.

TINCUP Whiskey's New Bourbon Leads Trio of Releases in 2025

TINCUP Whiskey's New Bourbon Leads Trio of Releases in 2025


Lineup includes two new hero expressions – an upgraded TINCUP Original American Whiskey, now aged 6 years, and an all-new, 100% bourbon - followed by a 10-year, 100 proof rye exclusively available in Colorado

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb. 25, 2025 - TINCUP® Whiskey, beloved by adventurers and whiskey lovers alike, is gearing up for 2025 with a trio of new releases, inclusive of two new hero products marked at more accessible price points – TINCUP Bourbon and TINCUP 6-Year Original American Whiskey – and a limited-time offering, TINCUP 10-Year Rye, available exclusively in its home state of Colorado. 

A New Basecamp: TINCUP Bourbon

 

Rounding out the brand's straight bourbon offerings, TINCUP Bourbon joins the legendary TINCUP Fourteener®- and TINCUP 10-Year with a lower-proof, more accessibly priced option. Cut with Rocky Mountain water, the straight bourbon – marked at an approachable 80 proof – is matured in charred new American white oak casks for at least four years. Complete with a sweet, smooth finish, the liquid includes hints of vanilla cream and caramel on the nose and butterscotch, dried orange and allspice on the palate. At an SRP of $24.99 per 750ml bottle, the new addition to the lineup is an accessible onramp to the category and the TINCUP family. Availability starts in February 2025.

An Elevated New Take: TINCUP 6-Year Original American Whiskey

Next up is TINCUP 6-Year Original American Whiskey, a more seasoned and elevated take on its mainstay TINCUP Original. A marriage of high rye straight bourbon whiskey, now aged a longer six years and kissed with more American single malt whiskey, adding a subtly sweet complexity to every sip. The new hero product gives TINCUP fans an enhanced liquid at the same $27.99 suggested retail price point they're accustomed to, a testament to the brand's commitment to producing high quality products without taking away the accessibility it is known for. Still at an approachable 84 proof – and bottled at 5,251 feet elevation – the liquid includes hints of citrus, black pepper and ginger snap on the nose and rye spice, cinnamon and caramel on the palate. The 750ml bottle will roll out to retailers nationwide starting in early 2025 as an upgrade to TINCUP Original.

A New, Limited-Time Offering: TINCUP 10-Year Straight Rye Whiskey

Finally, whiskey adventurers based in TINCUP's home state of Colorado can treat themselves to TINCUP 10-Year Straight Rye Whiskey - the brand's oldest rye to date. Bottled at 100 proof, the liquid marries the bold, pure, untamed flavor of TINCUP with a full decade of oak barrel aging. A first-ever limited-time offering available at retailers across the Rocky Mountain State, locals can find the bottle at an SRP of $64.99.

Imagery of the new bottles can be found here.

About TINCUP®
TINCUP is a classic family of American whiskeys founded by Jess Graber, a Coloradan whose distilling adventures started nearly 40 years ago. TINCUP takes its name and inspiration from Tin Cup, an old Colorado mining town on the state's rugged western slope named for the tin cups that resident workers drank their whiskey from.

Michter's Announces 2025 Release of Its US*1 Barrel Strength Rye

Michter's Announces 2025 Release of Its US*1 Barrel Strength Rye


LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 25, 2025 -- Michter's Master Distiller Dan McKee and Michter's Master of Maturation Andrea Wilson have approved the release of Michter's US*1 Barrel Strength Rye. Shipments to bars, restaurants, and stores will begin this March.

"When we began selling our rye many years ago, American rye whiskey was virtually an afterthought for a lot of people. Our team takes pride in our ryes, and it's great to see how this category of wonderful whiskey has returned to the forefront," observed Michter's President Joseph J. Magliocco.

With a mashbill that, while being majority rye grain, has a good deal of corn and malted barley as well, Michter's Ryes are Kentucky style. "We often have people at a tasting that say they are not rye drinkers, but when they taste Michter's they are surprised by how much they enjoy it," said McKee. "This Kentucky style rye at barrel strength is another fantastic way to enjoy the traditional characteristics of a rye whiskey while offering a nice balance of sweetness and spice."

Michter's US*1 Barrel Strength Rye is a single barrel product, and the average proof of the barrels in this 2025 release is 110.5 proof (55.25% ABV). The suggested retail price for a 750ml bottle in the U.S. is $120.

Speaking of US*1 Barrel Strength Rye, Wilson commented, "It is an absolute honor to share such a wonderful representation of what American rye can be with its baking spice, dark fruit, toffee, and fragrant citrus and floral notes all within a round, smooth, complex finish to be contemplated and savored. I could not be prouder of our team and the efforts to create such a refined American rye that tips our hat to the history of rye whiskey in this country."

In October 2024, Michter's became the first whiskey to be named in two consecutive years The World's Most Admired Whiskey by a vote of an international academy of voters announced by UK based Drinks International. Michter's has a rich and long legacy of offering traditional American whiskeys of uncompromising quality. With each of its limited production offerings aged to its peak maturity, Michter's highly acclaimed portfolio includes bourbon, rye, sour mash whiskey, and American whiskey.

Award-Winning Edmond's Honor Bourbon, a First-of-Its-Kind Ultra-Premium Spirit from Pronghorn, Ushers in a New Chapter for the Bourbon Industry

Award-Winning Edmond's Honor Bourbon, a First-of-Its-Kind Ultra-Premium Spirit from Pronghorn, Ushers in a New Chapter for the Bourbon Industry

Aged in Madagascar vanilla extract-soaked cognac casks, Edmond's Honor celebrates the untold story of Edmond Albius and uplifts the next generation of unsung pioneers in art, culinary arts and mixology by rooting its business in purpose.

ATLANTA, Feb. 18, 2025 - As Black History Month amplifies the stories of Black visionaries whose contributions have shaped culture, Edmond's Honor, a first-of-its kind ultra-premium bourbon whiskey enters the market with a bold mission: to honor legacy, elevate craftsmanship, and raise a toast to the next generation of everyday heroes.

Edmond's Honor was founded by Pronghorn, a standalone business focused on creating a template for diversifying industries, starting with the spirits industry. Pronghorn serves as a hybrid accelerator and industry-wide trailblazer, providing new opportunities for underrepresented founders, entrepreneurs, and executives.

Edmond's Honor, the company's first product innovation, is crafted by liquid curator Tracie Franklin as a tribute to Edmond Albius, the overlooked Malagasy botanist prodigy who revolutionized vanilla cultivation by hand pollinating orchids. 

Born on the island of Bourbon (now Réunion) off the coast of Madagascar, his breakthrough transformed vanilla into one of the world's most coveted flavors, a legacy and technique that endures today.

"Edmond Albius isn't a household name, but he should be. His discovery shaped an entire industry, yet his story remains largely untold," said Pronghorn President Ron Cole.  "With Edmond's Honor, we're reclaiming his legacy and uplifting a new generation of visionaries through every pour."

Redefining the Ultra-Premium Bourbon Category

Rooted in purpose and reclamation of legacy, Edmond's Honor sets a new standard in the ultra-premium bourbon category.  As an arbiter of premium taste, distinction and sophistication, Edmond's Honor is responsibly sourced, aged in Madagascar vanilla extract-soaked cognac casks and crafted with an unwavering commitment to quality and the artistry of bourbon making.

"When we set out to create Edmond's Honor, we wanted to represent Edmond Albius' legacy through distinctive taste and embrace the essence of real Madagascar vanilla, an ingredient that he made possible," said Tracie Franklin, Edmond Honor's Liquid Curator. "Every sip is a testament to Edmond's discovery and the artistry shaping the future of bourbon."

Edmond's Honor has already earned acclaim as a recipient of a Platinum Las Vegas Global Spirit Award, further cementing its place as a standout in the ultra-premium bourbon category.

The Taste of Edmond's Honor

Edmond's Honor delivers a multi-sensory experience from appearance to finish. Its gleaming golden hue is complemented by aromas of honeysuckle, brown sugar, toasted baking spices, and cocoa.  On the palate sandalwood and coconut unfold, followed by warm nutmeg, allspice, and citrus zest.  Layers of brown butter, toasted oak, and chocolate add depth, leading to a smooth finish with lingering notes of orange blossom, cinnamon, and Madagascar vanilla.

Supporting the Next Generation of Visionaries

Edmond's Honor does more than celebrate the legacy and global generational impact of Edmond Albius's discovery.  It honors truth - a truth that recognizes that there are incredible contributors to global society across the cultural landscape whose stories are often overlooked.  Beyond the glass, Edmond's Honor is dedicated to building a rich ecosystem that fosters and celebrates creativity while making a meaningful impact in the community.  The brand is exemplifying its commitment to social responsibility by investing a portion of its proceeds into charitable groups that support initiatives championing the new generation of underrepresented pioneers in art, culinary arts and mixology.

Where to Find Edmond's Honor

Edmond's Honor is available in 750ml size bottles at select retailers in Georgia, New Jersey and Florida, and will be expanding to additional states throughout the year.  It is also available for nationwide shipping at www.edmondshonor.com.

ABOUT EDMOND'S HONOR

Edmond's Honor is an ultra-premium bourbon whiskey that delivers an exceptional experience in every glass.  Crafted with meticulous artistry and enriched with Madagascar vanilla extract-soaked cognac casks, our bourbon offers a distinctive and sophisticated taste.  Inspired by the untold story of Edmond Albius, a Malagasy botanist who revolutionized vanilla cultivation, Edmond's Honor celebrates the richness of history and the power of artistry and discovery.  Barrel-aged to perfection, each pour invites exploration and connection with the past while enhancing appreciation for the present. Edmond's Honor is a tribute to the art of bourbon.  A story in every pour.  For more information and to learn more about Edmond's Honor, please visit www.edmondshonor.com.

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey Unveils Its First Bottled-in-Bond Expression, Distilled in Spring 2017

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey Unveils Its First Bottled-in-Bond Expression, Distilled in Spring 2017

The brand's first bonded whiskey is crafted at Bulleit Distilling Company in Shelbyville, KY

SHELBYVILLE, Ky., Feb. 18, 2025 - Bulleit Frontier Whiskey proudly announces the launch of its first-ever Bottled-in-Bond bourbon, distilled and aged entirely at the Bulleit Distilling Company in Shelbyville, Kentucky. Distilled in Spring 2017—the same year the state-of-the-art distillery opened -- and aged for seven years, this expression marks a pivotal milestone for the expanding Bulleit portfolio and demonstrates the brand's commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

Produced under the strict standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, this bold new chapter in the Bulleit portfolio reflects the precision, patience, and innovation that have become hallmarks of the brand.

Crafted to the Highest Standards with a Smooth Finish
Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond embodies the brand's signature high-rye mash bill delivering a bold, distinctive flavor. Distilled in Spring 2017, aged in federally bonded warehouses, and bottled at 100 proof, it adheres to the exacting requirements of the Bottled-in-Bond Act, ensuring exceptional quality and consistency.

This expression has already earned a 91-point rating at the 2024 International Wine & Spirits Competition, underscoring its excellence. Perfect for savoring neat, on the rocks, or as the foundation for bold cocktails, Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond offers a rich, layered experience: aromas of spice and toasted oak, a palate of maple sweetness and nutmeg warmth, and a smooth, lingering butterscotch finish.

Delicia James, Lead Whiskey Blender at Diageo said "Introducing our first Bottled-in-Bond bourbon, made entirely at the Bulleit Distilling Company is a proud achievement for our team. With our signature high-rye mash bill and seven years of aging under Bottled-in-Bond standards, this bourbon delivers a richness and complexity we're excited to share. It's a whiskey that truly showcases the best of what we do here in Shelbyville—bold, balanced, and crafted with care."

Jesse Damashek, Senior Vice President of North American Whiskeys at Diageo added: "The past year has been a defining one for Bulleit, and the release of our first Bottled-in-Bond bourbon adds a meaningful new chapter to our story. Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond is more than a celebration of craftsmanship, it's a testament to our commitment to innovation and to showcasing the exceptional quality of whiskey crafted at our distillery in Shelbyville."

Many Milestones Achieved, Many More to Come
With Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond, the brand builds on a legacy of innovation through a series of recent releases that highlight its dedication to advancing the frontier of whiskey. The last year has seen the launch of Bulleit American Single Malt, a significant step into an emerging whiskey category, alongside the introduction of Rye 10-Year-Old, a permanent addition to the range, and the celebrated return of Rye 12-Year-Old after five years, offering a rye with a complex yet approachable character. Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond is rooted in the brand's spirit of experimentation and innovation, reflecting a relentless drive to advance whiskey craft.

Going forward, this expression will continue as a limited-time release, with the frequency and timing determined by The Bulleit blending team to ensure each bottling meets the highest standards of quality and character.

Availability

Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond will be available nationwide starting February 2025, with a suggested retail price of $54.99 for a 750ml bottle.

No matter where or how you decide to enjoy Bulleit Bottled in Bond, Bulleit reminds consumers 21+ to please remember to taste and serve responsibly.

Maker's Mark Premieres "Perfectly Unreasonable"

New Global Brand Campaign Celebrates the Remarkable Lengths it Takes to Create Uncompromisingly Delicious Bourbon

LORETTO, Ky., Feb. 17, 2025 - Maker's Mark®, the iconic handmade Kentucky bourbon, today announced the launch of its new global brand campaign, Perfectly Unreasonable. The cinematic campaign asserts that going to unreasonable lengths – in life and in bourbon – is what separates good from remarkable. It celebrates those who relentlessly pursue excellence and shines a light on the unconventional decisions that have made Maker's Mark an icon.

"Perfectly Unreasonable is more than a campaign, it has been our ethos since my grandparents broke with tradition to reimagine what bourbon could be," said Rob Samuels, eighth generation whisky maker and managing director, Maker's Mark. "Maker's Mark continues to be driven by the pursuit of better bourbon and a better world, with our founders' vision as our north star."

From the beginning, Maker's Mark founders Margie and Bill Samuels Sr. committed to doing things differently. Burning the family's 170-year-old recipe to create something entirely new for the category – a delicious and balanced bourbon – and they chose the homeplace for Maker's Mark in outlying Loretto, Kentucky because of its unique water source. They were also one of the first to open their distillery doors to visitors – a precursor to today's Bourbon Trail. This challenger spirit endures today with every bottle hand-dipped in signature red wax, every barrel rotated by hand, and the brand's dedication to become B Corp and Regenified certified.

Perfectly Unreasonable was shot by acclaimed Swedish film director Marcus Söderlund and serves as a manifesto for a new generation of global bourbon enthusiasts, illustrating that breakthrough accomplishments are born from challenging the status quo with vision and determination. This global campaign marks the first execution for the brand by global creative agency Carmichael Lynch.

"This bold campaign reinforces how Maker's Mark is unique in its uncompromising commitment to excellent bourbon, as well as the personal and unconventional ways we communicate to consumers," said Chloe Lloyd-Jones, vice president of global brand marketing, Maker's Mark. "We know Perfectly Unreasonable will resonate with Maker's Mark fans, who expect nothing less from us, and new whisky drinkers around the world."

Perfectly Unreasonable premiered in the U.S. during NBC Primetime this weekend and will include integrations with NBC's "Late Night with Seth Meyers" as well as 'The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers' and 'Family Trips with the Meyers Brothers' Podcasts. A fully integrated campaign will roll out nationally and in key markets globally throughout 2025. The hero creative will take 30-second, 15-second and six-second forms across television, streaming, digital and social media, and will be supported via the brand's website, ambassador program and distillery experiences.

For more information, please visit www.makersmark.com.

ABOUT MAKER'S MARK
Maker's Mark® is the iconic handmade Kentucky bourbon driven by a vision for better flavor and a better world. Maker's Mark began with the innovative spirit of Margie and Bill Samuels, Sr., who in 1953, fulfilled their dream to create a delicious bourbon without the bite, using soft red winter wheat instead of rye to enhance the softness, sweetness and signature creaminess. Highly desired around the world, Maker's Mark is handmade, hand-dipped in our signature red wax, and every barrel continues to be rotated by hand and is aged to taste not time.

Always true to the founders' vision, Maker's Mark continues to shape the brand's future through purposeful, flavor-driven innovation. In recent years, the brand has introduced thoughtful, super-premium expressions to its portfolio, including Maker's Mark 46, Maker's Mark Cask Strength, and Maker's Mark Cellar-Aged, all Double Gold winners of the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, as well as Maker's Mark Private Selection: the brand's custom barrel program.

Advancing its mission to cultivate bourbon that betters the world, while crafting the most flavorful product possible for consumers, Maker's Mark is the largest bourbon distillery in the world to achieve B Corp Certification and the first distillery to achieve Regenified Certification, a reflection of the brand's dedication to sustainable agriculture practices at Star Hill Farm, home to the Maker's Mark Distillery.

To Celebrate the Anniversary of the Historic “Eat a Peach” Album, Three Chord Bourbon Announces a New Backstage Series Bourbon Release with The Allman Brothers Band

To Celebrate the Anniversary of the Historic “Eat a Peach” Album, Three Chord Bourbon Announces a New Backstage Series Bourbon Release with The Allman Brothers Band


This is the second Allman Brothers release from Three Chord; Backstage Series designed to capture the spirit of a band in a bottle

Nashville, Tennessee, February 12–– Three Chord Bourbon, the acclaimed whiskey brand renowned for award-winning blends, innovative cask finishes, and philanthropic work in the music community, is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated release of its 2025 Backstage Series, a collaboration featuring the legendary Allman Brothers Band being announced to coincide with the anniversary of “Eat a Peach” which was released on fifty-three years ago today. This release is a meticulously blended spirit composed of 9-year-old straight Kentucky bourbon and 11-year-old Tennessee whiskey from a bourbon mash aged in re-charred barrels, finished for 3-6 months in peach brandy barrels from George Washington's distillery at Mount Vernon. .

Three Chord’s Allman Brothers blend costs $199.99, and is 107 proof. It is available for pre-order here and will be available online and in select markets in March.

The idea for the collaboration originated in late 2022 with the Allman Brothers estate and David Spero, long-time manager of Dickey Betts, who saw an opportunity to bring the spirit of The Allman Brothers Band to new audiences while supporting the musical community. Inspired by the iconic album “Eat a Peach,” every detail of this limited edition offering—from the label design to the blend of bourbons and the custom peach brandy cask finishing —was developed collaboratively by the Allman Brothers Band and Three Chord Bourbon.

Other bands in the Backstage Series include Halestorm, Taking Back Sunday, Dinosaur Jr., and Black Stone Cherry. More information on Three Chord and the Backstage Series can be found here.

“At Three Chord Bourbon, we’re all about the music,” said the founder of Three Chord Bourbon and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Neil Giraldo.  “Since day one, our mission has been to create blends that capture the same excitement you feel when you hear your favorite songs. With the Backstage Series, we strive to bottle each artist’s essence—the special qualities that make them stand out. And who better to celebrate than the Allman Brothers, whose legendary legacy and boundless creativity inspired this truly exceptional release.”

Enthusiasts can secure their bottles early as online pre-orders are available at the following link: https://allmanbrothersband.mashnetworks.co/. The 2025 Backstage Series – The Allman Brothers Band Bourbon will also be available at select retailers later this year.

Jameson® Irish Whiskey Raises a Glass to Professional American Football Finally Touching Down in Dublin, Ireland

Jameson® Irish Whiskey Raises a Glass to Professional American Football Finally Touching Down in Dublin, Ireland


After two years rallying for Dublin to host a professional football game, Jameson Irish Whiskey and fans get their wish

NEW YORK, Feb. 7, 2025 - The football gods heard us! Professional American football is officially coming to Dublin, and Jameson Irish Whiskey is ready to celebrate.

As professional football continues to expand globally, the great city of Dublin, home of Jameson, has longed to be a destination to host a regular season game. So Jameson went to work and in 2023 launched Touchdown in Dublin, a call for fans to get loud and show why Dublin – a city that boasts the best spirits and fans – deserves to host the great game of American football.

Apparently, we weren't loud enough. 

In 2024, Jameson got even louder by enlisting football great Julian Edelman to march on a well-known football headquarters in New York City and make sure the powers that be heard us. The efforts paid off, as today it was announced that Pittsburgh will host the first regular season American football game in the great city of Dublin.

"Jameson has been unofficially calling for this moment for two years, and it is a testament to the passion and support of football fans across the world," said Johan Radojewski, Vice President of Marketing, Jameson Irish Whiskey. "Now, the fun part. We can't wait to celebrate with the fans that helped make this happen and are already working on how to go BIG for the game in Dublin."

For more information about Jameson's Touchdown in Dublin campaign, follow Jameson on Instagram at @JamesonUS.

Blade and Bow Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted through a unique aging and blending process by blending bourbon of various ages to preserve the Stitzel-Weller Distillery into every bottle. The aromatic brightness of the young shines through the rich character and structure of the older liquid to ensure the union of ages is present in each bottle.

JDJ provides financial support to families battling cancer, grants scholarships to deserving high school seniors affected by cancer, and funds leading cancer research as core initiatives. This is the third year that JDJ and Misunderstood have teamed up to provide financial assistance to cancer families by reimbursing them for living, food, travel, and other expenses during difficult times.

"This campaign is incredibly important to us. We cherish the ability to support families who are navigating tough times and partner with our good friend James," shared JD Recobs and Chris Buglisi, co-founders of Misunderstood Whiskey Co. "We're grateful for the growing number of partners and customers who've embraced this initiative and aim to make a greater impact this year."

"Over the years, the success of this campaign has allowed us to help families battling brain cancer and leukemia with food, grocery, gas and utility bills," said James Blauvelt, founder of JDJ Charitable Foundation. "The financial toxicity that comes with fighting cancer can be stressful and difficult. At JDJ, we can put your donations into action immediately to help families battling today. We are grateful for Misunderstood Whiskey's continued generous support."

To spotlight the cause initiative, Misunderstood Whiskey Co. has shaken and stirred up eight toddy recipes, both hot and iced, including the Ginger Hot Toddy and TIKI Toddy. Each of the eight recipes, which can be found at misunderstoodwhiskey.com/have-a-toddy, features Misunderstood's flagship whiskey—Misunderstood Ginger Spiced Whiskey—a blend of select bourbon and American whiskey, aged in American oak barrels, and finished with two types of real ginger for a refreshingly distinct smooth taste. Bars and restaurants who are interested in making an impact can reach out to info@misunderstoodwhiskey.com to learn more.
