FREY RANCH® DISTILLERY CELEBRATES MEANINGFUL CONTRIBUTIONS MADE BY WOMEN WITHIN AMERICAN WHISKEY MOVEMENT THROUGH INAUGURAL WOMEN + WHISKEY CAMPAIGN

From Women's History Month through Mother's Day, Company to Donate $1 from Each Bottle Sold, up to $10,000, to "Moms on the Run" Breast Cancer Charity

FALLON, Nev., March 8, 2022 - As cofounder of Frey Ranch Distillery, Ashley Frey – one half of the Frey Ranch husband & wife team behind their ground-to-glass "whiskey farm" - is one of many women who've built a career in an industry where the "fairer sex" comprises the fastest growing segment of the whiskey-consuming public. The consummate working mom and whiskey woman, Ashley joins the legion of ladies blazing a trail in America's Native Spirit – bourbon – and its spicier cousin rye. Celebrating the many achievements of women who make, market and drink American Whiskey, Frey Ranch Distillery today announced a 360-degree Women + Whiskey marketing campaign running from Women's History Month through Mother's Day.

Historically, women have always played a prominent role in whiskey-making – albeit behind-the-scenes. Today, women are at the forefront of moving the business in new, exciting, and more inclusive directions. Recent data (according to MRI 2020) indicates that around 40 percent of American Whiskey drinkers are women, while a growing number of female distillers, blenders, owners, founders, and bartenders are changing the face of America's native spirit.

Interestingly, women have more nuanced senses of smell than men – useful when nosing and tasting a whiskey. In fact, scientific estimates indicate that 35 percent of women qualify as "supertasters" – meaning a person who has more taste buds and receptors resulting in tasting certain flavors and foods more strongly than other people.

Timed to coincide with International Women's Day, Ashley will moderate a panel discussion with her whiskey peers, including award-winning writer and podcast host Prairie Rose from Bit By A Fox, Shaylyn Gammon, newly-appointed Whiskey Director at Blue Run Spirits (www.bluerunspirits.com) and award-winning craft cocktail bartender Mimi Burnham, via Frey Ranch Distillery's (@FreyRanchDistillery) Instagram Live from 4:00 – 4:30pm ET on March 8th dedicated to the power of mentorship.

Additionally, Frey Ranch will turn over its social channels @FreyRanchDistillery to spotlight the many incredible women behind the bar – without who the 21st century cocktail revolution would not be possible. Ashley will also visit San Diego, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento, and Las Vegas to host tasting events and pop ups for both the whiskey curious and the connoisseur.

"We believe whiskey is a communal experience, which is why we welcome all whiskey drinkers to join our celebration of Women + Whiskey where we honor the meaningful contributions of women from all facets of the business," said Ashley Frey, cofounder of Frey Ranch Distillery. "In that spirit, we're proud to donate $1 from every bottle of Frey Ranch Bourbon sold at participating retailers to Pinocchio's Moms on the Run – an organization close to my heart that provides financial and emotional support for women battling breast cancer."

To honor the whiskey woman in your life, cheers her with a delicious and refreshing Blackberry Smash.

Muddle lime, blackberries, and mint together. Stir in Frey Ranch Bourbon + simple syrup. Top with club soda, garnish with mint leaves, blackberries, and serve over crushed ice.

Ingredients:

2 Fresh Lime Wedges Squeezed

8 Fresh Blackberries

5 Large Mint Leaves

2 Ounces of Frey Ranch Bourbon

½ Ounce of Simple Syrup

1 Ounce Club Soda

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey Introduces Ready to Serve Cocktails: Bulleit Crafted Cocktails in Two Classic Recipes

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey Introduces Ready to Serve Cocktails: Bulleit Crafted Cocktails in Two Classic Recipes

Perfected in Collaboration with Bartenders, the Bulleit Manhattan and Bulleit Old Fashioned Crafted Cocktails Deliver a Convenient Bar-Quality Cocktail Experience from Anywhere - Just Pour, Serve and Enjoy.

NEW YORK, March 3, 2022 - Bulleit Frontier Whiskey is proud to introduce a new premium line of whiskey-based ready-to-serve cocktails to its award-winning portfolio with Bulleit Crafted Cocktails. Bulleit Crafted Cocktails offer up timeless, perfectly crafted drinks, ready to pour straight from the bottle with the Bulleit Manhattan and Bulleit Old Fashioned.

 

With the help of some of the most celebrated and creative bartenders, Bulleit Crafted Cocktails were perfected through many rounds of refinement. The final product is an expression of collaboration that delivers a bar-quality cocktail experience, allowing everyone from cocktail enthusiasts and whiskey lovers to casual sippers to enjoy perfectly curated cocktails anywhere, no matter the occasion.

"It can take time to master a Manhattan or Old Fashioned," said Adam Geissler, Bulleit Brand Ambassador. "Luckily bartenders are masters of their craft and have been skillfully making these cocktails with our whiskeys for years, so it was only right we had them help us create these products to help put bartender quality cocktails in the hands of people (21+) to enjoy without the time or fuss of cocktail preparation."

With the rise of at-home entertainment over the past few years, from impromptu dinner parties to small watch parties or those "just because" moments, Bulleit Crafted Cocktails allow both casual and experienced hosts to enjoy the company of friends while serving a premium cocktail experience.

"As a brand rooted in bartender culture, we collaborated with a number of leading bartenders to perfect and refine two timeless whiskey cocktails, the Old Fashioned and Manhattan," said Sophie Kelly, Senior Vice President of Whiskies, Diageo. "With Bulleit Crafted Cocktails, consumers can pour and serve bar quality, crafted cocktails wherever they are. Whilst nothing can replace the full experience of enjoying a drink made by your local bartender, Bulleit Crafted Cocktails are as close as you can get."

A fresh take on a timeless classic, the Bulleit Old Fashioned Cocktail is a sweet blend of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, with the classic flavors of aromatic orange bitters and simple syrup, enhancing the hints of spice from the high-rye bourbon. The Bulleit Rye Manhattan was inspired by the simple belief that a spicier rye makes for a better Manhattan. The Straight Rye Whiskey packs a punch with subtle deep flavor, that's balanced out by sweet vermouth and bitters which add a brilliant layer of complexity.

With these new offerings, Bulleit continues to deliver on its innovative spirit, providing whiskey fans and cocktail connoisseurs convenience without sacrificing quality. Taking inspiration from the brand's iconic orange and green packaging, Bulleit Crafted Cocktails are encased in vibrant, design-forward bottles, complementing the bold and exciting flavors within.

While the liquid is already a bar quality serve thanks to our bartender collaborators, the crafting doesn't have to stop with the pour. Bulleit encourages consumers (21+) to embrace their inner bartender by customizing their garnish choices. Whether you're the lemon twist type or an exactly three cherries type, the possibilities are endless. Served neat, chilled or over ice – enjoy however you'd like.  

To help launch Bulleit Crafted Cocktails, the brand is putting the ready to serve cocktails in the hands of those on the frontier by working with bartenders on a content series exploring unique ways to garnish, and by celebrating with cultural pioneers starting with those breaking the boundaries of film and television at the Film Independent Spirit Awards in Los Angeles.

Bulleit Crafted Cocktails are a permanent addition to the Bulleit portfolio and are available now nationwide. The Bulleit Manhattan and Bulleit Old Fashioned ready-to-serve cocktails are available in 375mL and 750mL bottles, contain 37.5% ABV and have a suggested retail price of $29.99 (750mL). To learn more about Bulleit Crafted Cocktails, visit https://www.bulleit.com/bulleitCraftedCocktails/.

No matter where or how you decide to enjoy Bulleit Crafted Cocktails, Bulleit reminds consumers 21+ to please remember to pour and serve responsibly.

Diageo will now build on this rich heritage with the creation of a new distillery by converting the historic former Guinness Power House on Thomas Street.

Sagamore Spirit Releases Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey, Latest Offering from the Distillery's Reserve Series

Rye spice is balanced by hints of banana, passion fruit, spiced pineapple, and vanilla from Jamaican and South American rum barrels in limited time offering, now available nationwide

BALTIMORE, March 1, 2022 Sugar and spice are teaming up as unexpectedly ideal partners this spring in Sagamore Spirit's newest limited-edition rye whiskey: Sagamore Spirit Reserve Series Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey, announced today by the award-winning distiller.

Sagamore Spirit first offered a Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey in 2019 as part of a smaller release offered exclusively at its Baltimore distillery. The positive response to that first batch, which was aged in a Jamaican high ester rum barrel, led the distillery to offer this year's version, now available nationwide.

For this year's release, Sagamore Spirit's distilling team took a blend of its barrel-aged 5- and 6-year-old straight rye whiskies, placing some of it in hand-selected barrels from South America, and the rest in barrels from Jamaica, aging both for an additional 10 months. Once aged, the whiskey from both barrels were then blended back together. The Jamaican rum barrels contribute notes of ripe banana and bright pineapple, which are then balanced by the rich vanilla and brûléed sugar character from the South American rum barrels. The result is a complex, yet approachable take on Sagamore Spirit's award-winning rye whiskey at 98-proof.

"This product is another great example of our distilling team's commitment to excellence," said Brian Treacy, Sagamore Spirit's co-founder and president of distillery operations. "Rum and rye whiskey were both favorites in Maryland's early days, dating back centuries. Our team brought them together again in a whole new way that brings out the best of sugarcane and rye grain, all in one bottle."

Rum Cask Finish is part of the Sagamore Spirit Reserve Series, a collection of limited-edition Maryland-style rye whiskies that celebrate the legacy of Maryland distilling, with an unyielding focus on excellence from start to finish. Past releases include 8-Year-Old Rye Whiskey, Manhattan Finish and Tequila Finish. 

Sagamore Spirit Rum Cask Finish is as versatile as its predecessors and can be savored neat, on the rocks, or mixed into a seasonal cocktail as warmer weather approaches. It is becoming available nationwide this month in 750ml bottles at a suggested retail price of $79. To find a bottle near you visit sagamorespirit.com/find-rye.

While Rum Cask Finish will only be available for a limited time, fans can enjoy Sagamore Spirit year-round with its Signature, Cask Strength, and Double Oak rye whiskies, the distillery's core offerings that are leading the Maryland-style rye revival across the country.

About Sagamore Spirit
Inspired by the legacy of Maryland Rye and today's spirit consumer, Sagamore Spirit is driven to craft the world's best Rye Whiskey while strengthening its collective communities. Its award-winning five-acre waterfront distillery in Baltimore is reclaiming the city's rightful place in America's whiskey history, where storied distillers perfected rye whiskey for more than 150 years before Kentucky was founded.

Maryland Rye Whiskey was known to be full bodied yet notably more balanced than other regional rye styles, and Sagamore Spirit has picked up the torch. Its American Rye Whiskies have earned more than 100 awards internationally, including "World's Best Rye Whiskey" in 2019 at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Sagamore Spirit's distillation team blends two different rye mash bills – a high rye and a low rye – and then adds pure Maryland limestone-filtered spring water, transported 22 miles from Sagamore Farm, to craft the brand's Signature 83-proof Maryland-Style Rye Whiskey.
