Famed American Whiskey Brand Releases Soon-To-Be Coveted Bulleit® 10
LAWRENCEBURG, Ky., Jan. 23, 2013 /jm/ -- As the renaissance of American whiskey endures, the category continues to expand and diversify. Perhaps no other bourbon has captured the palates of whiskey enthusiasts and the imagination of mixologists quite like Bulleit® Bourbon. With an undeterred passion for excellent whiskey, Tom Bulleit , founder of one of America's fastest growing small batch whiskies, officially announced today the availability of his selected reserve – Bulleit® 10 Years Old.
Aged in charred American white oak, a select number of Bulleit® Bourbon barrels were set aside to age for ten years to see how the already award-winning bourbon would develop. Bulleit® distillers were thrilled to find that the additional years resulted in a special expression of Bulleit® Bourbon that provides a rich, deep, incredibly smooth sipping experience that maintains the inherent character and high rye content for which the Bulleit® brand is best known.
"I may be biased, but I think Bulleit® Bourbon is incredible at its traditional age of five to eight years," said Tom Bulleit , "but it's exciting to see what happened to a select number of barrels aged a little longer. The result was a special expression of our family's bourbon that exceeded our expectations and we knew we had to bottle it and share it with our loyal fans."
Balanced, rich and complex with delicate floral notes which have been rounded through the extra years within the barrels, Bulleit® 10 is russet in color with rich oaky aromas and hints of vanilla and dried fruit. At 91.2 proof (45.6% ABV), the newest addition to the brand's portfolio of products possesses an exceptionally smoky and smooth finish.
Much like Bulleit® Bourbon and Rye, Bulleit 10 is showcased in the iconic frontier-inspired bottle with a beige label that prominently showcases the liquid's age. In addition, Bulleit® 10 is housed within a premium box display that creatively outlines the Bulleit family story and Tom's inspiration for fine bourbon.
"Bulleit® 10 is a very limited and special opportunity to responsibly enjoy the bourbon in a refined expression," Bulleit continued. "We are eager to see its receptivity and are making it available for as long as the supply lasts."
Bulleit® 10 is available nationwide for a suggested retail price of $44.99 for a 750 ml bottle. Please visit www.BulleitBourbon.com or www.Facebook.com/Bulleit to learn more and remember to always drink responsibly.

Glenmorangie Tees Off Relationship With World Golf Hall Of Fame Icon Sir Nick Faldo
NEW YORK, Jan. 21, 2013 /jm/ -- Glenmorangie, Scotland's favorite single malt Scotch whisky, announced a one-year association with legendary golfer Sir Nick Faldo today. With career highlights including six major championship wins, eleven consecutive Ryder Cup appearances and 98 weeks spent at the top of the rankings as the world's No. 1 golfer, Sir Nick Faldo is widely regarded as the most successful British golfer in history and of course in the UK. Sir Nick Faldo was knighted in 2009.
"This partnership recognizes the exceptional stature of Sir Nick Faldo and the leading role he has played in forging golf's global appeal and the influence that he continues to wield through his successful US and global broadcasting career," said Brian Cox , Vice President of Glenmorangie in the U.S. "Glenmorangie's 169-year legacy has been defined by an elite group of skilled craftsmen who created this 'unnecessarily well made' single malt Scotch whisky and Sir Nick embodies this commitment to perfection and we are honored to partner with him."
As Glenmorangie's new ambassador, Faldo will work closely with the brand throughout 2013, making guest appearances at consumer and trade events including Glenmorangie's presence as the official Spirit of the Open at the 2013 Open Championship at Muirfield, Scotland. Sir Nick will also collaborate in various CRM initiatives and the two parties will collaborate on a number of charitable initiatives.
"I am very proud to continue to work with Glenmorangie, which I have always regarded as the best single malt Scotch whisky and a leader in its field," said Faldo. Glenmorangie's relationship with Faldo is the brand's latest initiative to connect aficionados of premiere single malt Scotch whisky and golf.
Glenmorangie has leveraged its involvement with America's 27 million golfers to become the fastest growing single malt whisky in the U.S. for the third year in a row. Glenmorangie has also recently received tremendous industry accolades recognizing both its rising popularity but also its heritage and undisputed product excellence, including Scotch Whisky and Distillery of the Year from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2010, Wine Enthusiast's Distiller of the Year at the 2011 Wine Star Awards and in 2012 Glenmorangie was named a Hot Prospect brand by Impact, the highly respected industry source of reference.
Perhaps the greatest recent accolade has been the award of the prestigious title of "Distiller of the Year" this year from the International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) in London where Glenmorangie has consistently won more "Gold Best in Class" medals than any other single malt over the past six years.

Forty Creek Port Wood Reserve, a three-time winner, was also named Connoisseur Whisky of the Year in multiple markets, along with winning a gold medal. In announcing the awards, Chairman of the Judges, Davin de Kergommeaux , dubbed it "the best whisky yet from Forty Creek Distillery."
Other top winners included Gibson's Finest Rare 18 year old, and Canadian Rockies 21 year old.
The awards also recognized the 2012, flavoured whisky phenomenon. All of the major whisky makers have moved to address the growing demand for flavoured whiskies with Gibson's, Forty Creek, and Kruger Wine and Spirits being given particular mention.
Awards of Excellence were given to Kruger Wine and Spirits for Sortilège, Diageo for Crown Royal Maple, and Beam Inc. for Alberta Premium Dark Horse.
"What a year to be a whisky lover," said de Kergommeaux as he introduced the winners. "Canadian producers have really upped their game and we see the results here tonight." Canadian whisky sales were up four percent in 2012 and we've had double-digit growth in sales of high-end Canadian Connoisseur whiskies," de Kergommeaux continued, "The time has come to recognize the excellent quality of Canadian whisky."
