With an expert panel of judges—including Master Distillers, spirits journalists, buyers, and educators—the competition evaluates thousands of entries from around the globe in a rigorous blind-tasting format that awards only the best of the best.

"We call ourselves Spirit Benders™ because we don't just distill—we elevate, enhance, and transform," said Mike Weckerly, the original Spirit Bender at Windows Distillery. "These medals tell us we're not just on the right track—we're making waves."

These awards firmly establish Windows Distillery as a formidable presence in the spirits industry, demonstrating that its bold approach to creative blending, innovative finishing, and uncompromising craftsmanship ranks alongside legacy brands.

CHRIS STAPLETON AND BUFFALO TRACE DISTILLERY'S TRAVELLER WHISKEY BECOMES THE FIRST OFFICIAL WHISKEY OF MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

The multi-year partnership celebrates the shared craftsmanship, perseverance and passion of whiskey and baseball, honoring the timeless spirit of both American traditions

FRANKFORT, Ky., May 8, 2025 - Traveller Blended Whiskey, co-created by Buffalo Trace Distillery's Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley and Grammy-winning singer, songwriter and musician Chris Stapleton, formed a new multi-year agreement making Traveller the Official Whiskey of Major League Baseball (MLB).

The partnership solidifies the Most Awarded Super Premium Whiskey release of 2024 as the first whiskey brand ever designated by MLB as its Official Whiskey, and invites fans ages 21-and-older to savor the camaraderie and connection of the game with a whiskey in hand.

Chris Stapleton's Traveller Whiskey is the first whiskey brand ever designated by MLB as its Official Whiskey.

Sharing his excitement for the partnership, Chris Stapleton stated, "Whenever we're on the road and it happens to line up, we go to baseball games. It's become a bit of a tradition over the years. We love to experience all the different ballparks and enjoy the culture of whatever baseball town we happen to be in. My wife and I even went to Game Six of the World Series once on our anniversary. Needless to say, I'm thrilled Traveller Whiskey is going to be the Official Whiskey of MLB."

"Like a perfect swing or a game-changing slider, developing a great whiskey is an art form that demands passion, time and dedication to master," added Andrew Duncan, Global Brand Director for Traveller Whiskey. "Starting this summer, we're bringing that same spirit to ballparks across the country – where unforgettable moments, world-class whiskey and America's pastime come together. We're excited to introduce MLB fans to baseball's newest tradition, Traveller Whiskey."

The 360-degree marketing partnership will promote the brand across various multimedia touchpoints including game broadcasts, custom social and digital content such as MLB Power Rankings and in stores across the U.S. Traveller will also set up engaging fan activations on-site at 2025 MLB All-Star Week and the MLB Speedway Classic presented by BuildSubmarines.com. Lastly, Traveller plans to give fans 21+ the opportunity to attend these highly anticipated events via custom sweepstakes and giveaways in conjunction with MLB.

"Harlen, Chris and the Buffalo Trace team have created this standout brand in a very competitive, popular space, and we're excited to work with them," said Uzma Rawn Dowler, MLB Chief Marketing Officer & Senior Vice President, Global Corporate Partnerships. "Between record levels of MLB fan engagement, All-Star Week in Atlanta and the Speedway Classic at Bristol Motor Speedway, this is a great year for Traveller and MLB to start working together."

A first-of-its-kind collaboration of collective artistry, Traveller is proudly blended and bottled at the World's Most Award-Winning Distillery under Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley's expert supervision. More than 50 blends were tasted before Stapleton and Wheatley agreed that Blend No. 40 would become Traveller.

Bottled at 90 proof, Traveller Whiskey is characterized by notes of oak, sweet maple, tart currant and leather. Complex aromas of vanilla, aged fruit and buttery shortbread are rounded off by caramel and a touch of oak. The flavor profile also showcases a touch of sweetness, followed by spice, toasted nut and oak flavors, closing with a robust finish. Traveller is a completely unique combination of whiskeys hand-selected from The Sazerac Company's award-winning distilleries.

Traveller Whiskey is widely available at retailers, bars and restaurants nationwide at a suggested retail price of $39.99 per 750ml bottle (local taxes and fees will vary).

Heaven Hill Distillery® Announces Release of 2025 Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey and Launches Family Farms First™ Initiative

Through the Family Farms First Initiative, Heaven Hill Grain to Glass is committing up to $300,000 through 2028 to support family farms in times of need.

BARDSTOWN, Ky., May 6, 2025  Heaven Hill Distillery, America's largest family-owned and operated distillery, proudly announces the launch of Family Farms First, an initiative dedicated to supporting family-owned farms, in partnership with nonprofit organization Farm Rescue. Heaven Hill Grain to Glass is committed to celebrating and supporting the hardworking and passionate farm families who provide the high-quality ingredients essential to both America's food supply and its finest whiskeys.

This milestone moment coincides with the release of the highly anticipated Second Edition of Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. This small-batch bourbon represents the next chapter in a story that begins with the seed and ends in the glass, highlighting Heaven Hill's deep-rooted commitment to family, quality and craft.

Each annual edition of Heaven Hill Grain to Glass features a unique corn seed varietal, chosen in collaboration with Beck's Hybrids to grow well in the soils of Central Kentucky. The 2025 release features corn seed varietal Beck's 6225, and was grown by family-owned Peterson Farms on one of two sites in Nelson County, Kentucky. Made up of 52% corn, 35% rye and 13% malt, this unique mashbill, with a higher secondary grain content than Heaven Hill Distillery's traditional bourbon recipe, was aged for six years at Heaven Hill's Cox's Creek rickhouse site. Non-chill filtered and bottled at barrel strength, the result is a 105 proof, richly layered spirit that showcases the integrity of family-farm-grown ingredients and the craftsmanship of Heaven Hill Distillery.

"In 2017, we embarked on a journey to create a one-of-a-kind Grain to Glass Whiskey by partnering with family-owned seed companies and farms," said Max Shapira, Executive Chairman of Heaven Hill Brands. "These innovative mash bills feature hand-selected, unique grain varieties grown locally by Kentucky family farms. Heaven Hill Grain to Glass is a testament to the important legacy of family farmers, who are the lifeblood of our country."

As Heaven Hill approaches its 90th anniversary in December 2025, the Family Farms First initiative underscores the company's long-standing commitment to supporting fellow family businesses—especially those within the agricultural community. The initiative is launching with a partnership with Farm Rescue, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping farmers and ranchers overcome major hardships, injuries or natural disasters. Since 2005, Farm Rescue has provided free planting, harvesting, commodity hauling and livestock feeding assistance to over 1,000 farm families across eight states.

"Farm Rescue's mission is to keep family farms intact during times of crises," said Bill Gross, Founder and President of Farm Rescue. "Family farms, which make up 97% of U.S. farms, are vital to sustaining our communities and our future. Our collaboration with Heaven Hill Grain to Glass will bolster our ability to provide essential support to more farm families, ensuring they can continue their operations and sustain their livelihoods."

Tim Sullivan, Executive Director of Farm Rescue, added, "Support from companies like Heaven Hill profoundly impacts our capacity to assist family farms in need. Their commitment to quality and community resonates deeply with our mission, and we are grateful for their partnership." A portion of every sale of Heaven Hill Grain to Glass – up to $100,000 annually – will be donated to Farm Rescue.

"We are honored to partner with Farm Rescue as part of our Family Farms First initiative," continued Shapira. "Their efforts align perfectly with our values at Heaven Hill, where we understand the dedication and resilience needed to keep a family business thriving for generations. This investment will make a meaningful impact on the lives of those who sustain our communities and our way of life."

With every bottle of the Heaven Hill Grain to Glass, consumers are not only enjoying a world-class whiskey but also directly supporting the families who cultivate the land it comes from—a bold spirit with a bold mission. Heaven Hill and Farm Rescue are working to ensure that American farm families don't just survive, but thrive, for generations to come.

The weekend of celebrations comes at an exciting time for Elijah Craig, having just been named by the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition as a 2025 Best in Class Straight Bourbon Finalist for its Elijah Craig Barrel Proof C924, and a 2025 Platinum Medal Winner for Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old Bourbon.

About Elijah Craig Bourbon

Known as "The Father of Bourbon," Elijah Craig is credited with being the first distiller to age his wares in charred oak barrels to make Bourbon. The clear, unaged corn whiskey became transformed into a bold amber liquid with a distinctively smooth flavor that makes Bourbon what it is today. Elijah Craig's community impact continues through Elijah Craig Old Fashioned Week, providing total donations of half a million to date to organizations supporting the hospitality industry. Produced by Heaven Hill Distillery, the nation's largest independent, family-owned and led distillery and the world's second-largest holder of Kentucky Bourbon, the Elijah Craig lineup includes: Elijah Craig Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Elijah Craig Straight Rye Whiskey, Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Elijah Craig Toasted Rye Whiskey, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, and Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
