We’ve often written about releases from the World Whiskey Society. This is because the brand launches unique and interesting whiskeys sourced from all corners of the globe. Its newest releases are no different. That’s right, instead of launching one new whiskey, it’s dropping a pair of straight bourbons made in collaboration with Ducks Unlimited.

The Ducks Unlimited Special Edition 10-Year-Old Kentucky Bourbon was matured for a decade and (according to the brand) features notes of dark chocolate, hickory, dried fates, licorice, black cherry, and molasses.

The Ducks Unlimited Shotgun is an American Single Malt whiskey bottled in a vessel that looks like a shotgun shell. According to the brand, it features notes of oak, dark fruit, cocoa, chocolate, walnut, honey, allspice, and light smoke.

“We are excited to introduce two new Ducks Unlimited collaborations, sharing unique whiskey experiences with the world,” said Alex Kogan, CEO of the World Whiskey Society.

“We look forward to whiskey enthusiasts and collectors adding these exceptional Ducks Unlimited releases to their collections.”

How to survive a winery when you hate wine but your date loves it
Wineries for beginners from a beginner
Architecture, Building, Wood

Navigating the world while trying to operate outside societal norms can be difficult. When everyone in your friend group or family works a Monday-through-Friday, 9-5 job and you are the one jetsetting twice a month and calling multiple places home, it can be quite a challenge to maintain relationships. I have been able to find a way to maintain relationships (mostly) even though my life doesn't make sense to most people. It doesn't make sense to me most of the time either, but that is a conversation for another time. But one of the things that has been difficult for me is finding a way to navigate the wine world. My friends like wine. My dates like wine. Clients like wine. It is like the Roman Empire all over again, every time I go somewhere, someone is trying to pour me a bourdeau or a prosecco, or a riesling, or something or other that I don't know or understand. They are inviting me to wine tastings. They are trying to refine my palette.

But here is the rub. I really hate wine. Lately, I have considered myself a person intensely dedicated to brown beverages. I am a coffee in the morning, bourbon in the evening, and cola in between kind of man. And I like it that way. Navigating the culture of what wine goes with what meal is overwhelming and overcomplicated in my head. Coffee goes with every breakfast or dessert. Pepsi and Coke go with burgers and pizza every time. And, let's face it, bourbon goes with anything. So, why am I ranting about wine? Because I got an opportunity to visit the Susana Balbo winery in Mendoza, Argentina. Did I accept an invitation simply for the opportunity to sample Argentinian meat (which may be the best in the world)? You're damn right I did. Did I learn that I didn't hate wine as much as I thought, and there is a way to survive wineries when everyone around you loves it but you don't? Sure did. And here is how you can, too.

Buffalo Trace is turning its distillery into a summer camp for adults
Camp Buffalo Trace offers woodworking, tastings, and overnight luxury tents, but you'll have to win a sweepstakes to get in.
Architecture, Building, Cityscape

Buffalo Trace is a legendary name, and with that comes a lot of opportunities. They've done rare bottles, NFT auctions, and a tasting room in the middle of the Wyoming wilderness. So why not do a summer camp?

The Frankfort, Kentucky-based distillery just announced Camp Buffalo Trace, an adults-only (21+) riff on the classic sleepaway camp. Just think bourbon instead of lanyards.
