Jeptha Creed — Jeptha Creed Red, White & Blue Bourbon Batch Three Jeptha Creed

Jeptha Creed is releasing a new Kentucky Straight Bourbon. But while that alone should interest whiskey drinkers, it’s made even better because it’s being released to show support for current and past military members and their families by giving a portion of the proceeds to CreatiVets, a non-profit charity.

According to Jeptha Creed, the nose is a mix of dried cherries, candied orange peels, and vanilla beans on the nose. The palate is a symphony of orchard fruits, toasted vanilla beans, and cinnamon candy. The finish is long, warming, and filled with toffee, apricots, and stone fruits.

“We’re thrilled to release Batch Three of our Red, White & Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon,” Joyce Nethery, Master Distiller and CEO of Jeptha Creed Distillery, said in a press release. “This year’s partnership with CreatiVets deepens our commitment to honoring Veterans, a cause close to our hearts while celebrating the traditions that define our family and our distillery.”

If you have a lot of money burning a hole in your pocket, the distillers at The Glen Grant have just the right expression for you. And we’re not kidding when we say “a lot of money”. That’s because the renowned Scottish whisky distillers just launched the Splendours Collection, a series featuring the rarest and oldest whiskies maturing at The Glen Grant Distillery. And they aren’t playing around with the first release. Hint: it was distilled in the 1950s.

Disitilled in 1958, this whisky has been aging for more than six decades in a single French oak butt in the distillery’s oldest barrelhouse. Only 151 hand-crafted decanters are available. According to the brand, this results in a timeless expression that begins with a nose of sweet treacle, ripe black berries, and sandalwood. The palate is a mix of orange peels, ripe black cherries, fruit cake, and dates. The finish is a lingering, warming mix of citrus, spice, oak, and gentle smoke.
