Country Artists Jason Aldean and Florida Georgia Line Launch Latest Hit: Wolf Moon Bourbon

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 7, 2020 ACM "Artist of the Decade" Jason Aldean and multi-platinum, award-winning duo Florida Georgia Line (FGL) are pleased to announce the launch of their latest collaboration: Wolf Moon Bourbon™. After touring together since 2014, Aldean, Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley have become close friends and frequent collaborators, teaming up for Aldean's multiple No. 1 hits such as Aldean's "You Make It Easy," that FGL co-wrote, and joining forces on the song "Can't Hide Red."

Wolf Moon is an 80-proof bourbon distilled from Midwestern grains and aged for four years in new, charred American oak barrels. The bourbon's flavor profile, chosen by the trio, offers caramel, sweet corn, honey and candied fruit, balanced by hints of oak and spice.

"There's nothing like sharing a glass of bourbon with my crew after a show—you could say its been part of our ritual for years," said Jason Aldean. "Tyler and Brian have been a part of that ritual and we wanted to create something to remind us of our favorite memories. Wolf Moon's name is a nod to the pack—the friends that become family. I'm looking forward to raising a glass with all my fans on the road this year."

Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard are no strangers to the whiskey world, with the duo introducing Old Camp Whiskey back in 2016, starting with a peach pecan flavor to celebrate their home states and made to get the party started. It was only natural for them and the distilling team to collaborate with Jason on their next whiskey venture—a four-year-old straight bourbon, made for sipping and taking in 'the good life' moments with friends.

"Making good whiskey is a passion of ours, and we really wanted to create something new and fresh with Jason," said Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard. "We've had this idea for years and spent a lot of time making sure we got it just right. We're all so proud of this and can't wait for all of the memories to be made over Wolf Moon."

Wolf Moon is currently available in select markets, on ReserveBar.com, and soon to be available nationally at a suggested retail price of $24.99 for a 750 ml bottle.

ABOUT JASON ALDEAN

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, three-time ACM "Entertainer of the Year" Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. He's helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream's first contact with hard rock ("Hicktown"), hip-hop ("Dirt Road Anthem") and R&B ("Burnin' It Down"). But after all that time, he continues to hold his ground making modern albums with an old-school soul—most recently with his ninth studio album, 9, which debuted at the top spot on Billboard's Country Albums chart while landing at No. 2 on Billboard's Top 200 all-genre chart. Notably, all eight of Aldean's previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA, while bolstering 15 billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold and 23 radio chart-toppers. The fiery lead single "We Back" and "hard-rock country anthem" (Rolling Stone) behind 9 also serves as the namesake for Aldean's 2020 WE BACK TOUR featuring special guests Morgan Wallen, Riley Green and Dee Jay Silver. His tours are nearing legendary status as he has sold over ten million tickets and is one of the first of few acts in the genre to sell-out multiple stadiums including UGA's Sanford Stadium, Fenway Park, Wrigley Field, AT&T Stadium and Gillette Stadium.

Kilbeggan Distilling Company Introduces Kilbeggan® Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

HICAGO, Feb. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Kilbeggan Distilling Company continues to revive Irish whiskey history and tradition with the limited-edition release of Kilbeggan® Single Pot Still, a mixed mash whiskey featuring oats, which were used at Kilbeggan Distillery in the 19^th century. Pot Still whiskey is significant, as it is the traditional and distinctive style of Irish whiskey that was first produced in Ireland. The limited-edition Kilbeggan® Single Pot Still Irish whiskey will be available in the United States starting February 2020 with a suggested retail price of $44.99 (750ml).

"This remarkable whiskey is a glorious tribute to the traditional Irish pot still style and the community that kept Ireland's oldest continually licensed distillery alive over centuries of trial and triumph," said Michael Egan, U.S. Irish Whiskey Brand Ambassador for Kilbeggan Distilling Company. "It is a truly unique spirit, with a rare mash that has produced a flavor unlike anything available today."

Featuring a unique mash of malted barley, raw barley and 2.5 percent oats, the whiskey was inspired by recipes used at Kilbeggan Distillery through the late 1800s. In those times, oats were grown across the Midlands Region of Ireland and were commonly used by distillers like the Locke family at Kilbeggan for filtration purposes. The grain also imparts a unique flavor and creamy texture not typically found in Irish whiskey. The subtle influence of oats in this Kilbeggan Single Pot Still expression results in a whiskey that is soft and mellow, with a fresh, fruity palate. It has a light, lingering spice and a rich, creamy mouthfeel.

Double distilled to 86 proof in Kilbeggan's old copper pot stills – one of which is the world's oldest working whiskey pot still today – the new spirit is the second limited release to be 100 percent distilled and matured at Kilbeggan Distillery since its restoration in 2010. Kilbeggan Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks due to its soft and round character. It follows the release of Kilbeggan Small Batch Rye, another groundbreaking release and the first modern Irish whiskey of record to feature such a high quantity of rye within its mash.

KILBEGGAN® SINGLE POT STILL | 43% ABV

AROMA              
Initial fresh crisp aroma followed by apple, pear, and melon. Jasmine and hazelnut notes combine with a hint of honeycomb sweetness.

TASTE                  
Spice becomes apparent, but not overbearing, with summer fruits and citrus. Warming mid palate with a fresh mint leaf flavor leading on to a rich creamy mouthfeel.

FINISH                
Initially soft, mellow, and smooth, with a creamy finish. Lingering spice and a dryness as the oat influence become evident.

Limited Edition Kilbeggan® Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey joins the U.S. portfolio alongside permanent expressions Kilbeggan® Blended Irish Whiskey (40% ABV) and Kilbeggan® Single Grain Irish Whiskey (43% ABV).

Note to Editors: What is Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey?
A single pot still Irish whiskey is produced only in Ireland, at a single distillery that is double- or triple-distilled in copper pot stills from a mix of malted and unmalted barley and up to 5% of other grains.

Woodinville Whiskey Celebrates Ten Years

WOODINVILLE, Wash., Feb. 6, 2020 Established in 2010 by two best friends in their hometown of Woodinville, Woodinville Whiskey is celebrating its 10^th Anniversary with special celebrations and the release of distillery-only, limited edition whiskeys.

On February 9, Woodinville Co-Founders Brett Carlile and Orlin Sorensen, will host a 10^th Anniversary Celebration at the Distillery. That day Woodinville will introduce its distillery-only, limited edition Woodinville Triple Barrel Blended Whiskey Finished in Ardbeg Islay Scotch Barrels ($69.95 per bottle) and its Woodinville Bottled-in-Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey ($59.95 per bottle). Reservations are required for this event: a few spots remain available.

The Woodinville Tasting Room will be open to the general public to purchase these limited release whiskeys daily from 11:00am – 5:00pm, while supplies last. These whiskeys will only be available for purchase at the distillery in Woodinville, WA and cannot be shipped outside of the state.  Woodinville will release more special releases during 2020, its tenth year.

In a nod to traditional "Topping Off" ceremonies in construction, guests on the 9th will sign a steel beam which will ultimately be installed in a new building being constructed at the Omlin Family Farm in Central Washington. The Quincy farm, cultivated by farmers in their fourth generation, is where Woodinville's grain is grown and its whiskey ages. The Omlin farm has new Barrel Houses and a Processing Facility being constructed. Graham Baba Architects and Rimmer & Roeter Construction are the firms involved.

That day guests will also be invited to join Woodinville's "Follow the Barrel" list. Guests will sign barrels of Woodinville Bourbon being filled at the distillery. They will receive regular Follow the Barrel updates as to where the barrels are over the years as they travel to Quincy, age, are tasted by Woodinville's distillers, and are eventually ready for bottling.  At that point, five or six years from now, the Follow the Barrel members will be invited to taste and bottle that whiskey.

"It's hard to believe it's been 10 years since this incredible journey began," says Sorensen, Woodinville Cofounder/ Managing Director. "From the early days of bottling parties with friends who helped us get whiskey from barrel to bottle, to past releases where folks have camped out overnight to be among the first in line, we've made connections that are invaluable. And they've all centered around whiskey. The dream is to make the greatest craft whiskey in the world by bringing the time-honored traditions of bourbon production into a craft environment — using the highest quality locally grown grains from the Omlin Family Farm, the best barrels and coopers in the world, the most technologically advanced distilling equipment, and the mentorship of an industry icon, the late David Pickerell, former Master Distiller for Maker's Mark."

The 91-proof Woodinville Triple Barrel Blended Whiskey Finished in Ardbeg Islay Scotch Barrels ($69.95 per bottle, distillery only) is initially aged in new, heavy-toasted, lightly charred American oak barrels. After a stay in the new oak barrels it is re-barreled into used Bourbon barrels for additional aging and mellowing. Finally, it is re-barreled a third time into used Ardbeg Islay Scotch barrels. Cofounder and Distiller Brett Carlile gives it these tasting notes; "Subtle hints of vanilla bean, dried stone fruit and raisin with a slight hint of tobacco before being hit with a smoky, briny and earthy goodness. An incredible never-ending finish will leave you wanting more." The first 1,000 bottles will be hand numbered and will be given out in random order to those purchasing at the Distillery & Tasting Room on February 9^th.

Woodinville Bottled-in-Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey ($59.95 per bottle, distillery only) is a grain to glass bourbon, aged five years in heavily charred new American oak barrels, and bottled at 100 proof. Carlile describes it, "Candied nuts and dried fruit with a touch of dark chocolate. Vanilla/caramel truffle sweetness. Full bodied viscous mouthfeel with a long sweet lingering finish."

About Woodinville Whiskey Company
Woodinville Whiskey Company (www.woodinvillewhiskeyco.com) is a craft distillery founded by two longtime friends and residents of the Woodinville area, Orlin Sorensen and Brett Carlile under the mentorship of an industry icon, David Pickerell, former Master Distiller for Maker's Mark. Woodinville is Washington state's largest craft distillery, handcrafting all of its products from 100% locally sourced grains from the Omlin Family Farm in Quincy, Washington.

Their single farm, flagship products, Woodinville Straight Bourbon Whiskey, and Woodinville Straight Rye Whiskey were both awarded "Craft Whiskey of the Year" in their respective categories by the American Distilling Institute in 2016 and 2017. In Jim Murray's Whiskey Bible 2020, published last month, Woodinville Bourbon scored a "Brilliant" rating and the Rye was recognized as a "Superstar whiskey that gives us all a reason to live". In a December blind tasting by Fred Minnick, Woodinville 5-Year-Old Flagship Bourbon ($45 per bottle) nearly beat the iconic Pappy Van Winkle 23 (over $2,000 per bottle). Fred named Woodinville the "Best Bourbon not from Kentucky." Minnick is the editor-in-chief of Bourbon+ Magazine and host on numerous shows on the Spirits Network.

In 2017 Woodinville joined Moët Hennessy, the wine and spirits division of LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy), the world's leading luxury goods company, with Orlin and Brett still at the helm running the company. Woodinville flagship whiskeys are available in Washington state, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Oregon and Texas. The state-of-the-art distillery and tasting room in Woodinville, completed in 2014, is home to exclusive new launches. Private "Inside the Barrel VIP Tours", led by a distiller are available, when scheduled in advance. The distillery is open 7 days a week and the distillery-only anniversary offerings will be available for purchase there while supplies last.
