Georgetown, Kentucky-based Blue Run Spirits is known for its award-winning portfolio of bourbons and other whiskeys. This includes prestigious events such as the ASCOT, TAG Global, and the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. It’s the type of distillery that seems to produce only noteworthy expressions. Recently, this popular brand announced the launch of limited-edition packaging to celebrate the United States’ 250th birthday.
Blue Run Spirits USA 250th Anniversary Commemorative Packaging
This limited-edition packaging is available for its award-winning Blue Run Kentucky Straight High Rye Bourbon Whiskey. Created to celebrate this momentous occasion, the bottle features the classic Blue Run style with a patriotic tilt. Featuring the brand’s popular Viceroy butterfly, it’s adorned with hand-applied navy and white star accents. It also has a red-and-white striped tax strip. As a bonus, the design is heightened with labels printed using 22k gold ink.
The whiskey inside is just as noteworthy as the red, white, and blue-centric outside. This 111-proof Kentucky straight high-rye bourbon whiskey is made in small batches. According to the brand, the result is a well-balanced, complex whiskey that opens with notes of praline cookies, candied orange peels, dried cherries, and pipe tobacco. The palate is a symphony of flavors, including brown sugar, candied nuts, cracked black pepper, stone fruit, and dried apricot. The finish is long, warm, and memorable, ending with notes of herbal white tea, ripe peaches, and clove.
“This release was designed to recognize a once-in-a-generation American milestone with a bottle suited to the occasion,” Susie McInerney, Sr. Marketing Manager, Blue Run Spirits, says.
“From the star-accented butterfly to the 22K gold ink, every packaging detail was designed to feel intentional, collectible, and unmistakably Blue Run.”
