Since it’s located in the state that’s home not only to epic natural beauty as far as the eye can see, but also to not one but two National Parks, Wyoming Whiskey has a very close relationship with nature. To celebrate that partnership, the popular whiskey brand recently announced the newest release of its National Parks series of whiskeys,

Wyoming Whiskey National Parks No. 5 Straight Bourbon Whiskey: A Tribute to the Tetons

The new release in Wyoming Whiskey’s National Parks series is a tribute to the Tetons in a bottle. This is the fifth release, crafted in partnership with the Grand Teton National Park Foundation to support its continued efforts to preserve its natural resources. Previous releases included Yellowstone, Acadia, and another Grand Teton expression.

This 96-proof bourbon whiskey was made with only locally sourced ingredients and matured for a minimum of 5 years in new, charred American oak barrels. According to the brand, the result is a complex, sippable whiskey that features flavors like honey, cinnamon sugar, vanilla icing, candied oranges, almonds, cherry liqueur, chocolate, and leather.

“For those of you who’ve been following Wyoming Whiskey over the years, you’re aware of our ongoing commitment to the preservation of wide-open spaces. The cornerstone of our commitment is the support of our National Parks,” David DeFazio, Wyoming Whiskey co-founder, says.

“Over the last four years, we have made donations to Yellowstone Forever, the Grand Teton National Park Foundation, and Friends of Acadia, the philanthropic partners of each Park. With National Parks No. 5, we feature Grand Teton with a historic image by Thomas Moran titled The Three Tetons. This straight bourbon whiskey is five years old, bottled at 96 proof, and I must say, it hits all the right notes with the flavor profile.”

Where can I buy it?

National Parks No. 5 Straight Bourbon Whiskey: A Tribute to the Tetons is currently available at select whiskey retailers nationwide for the suggested retail price of $74.99 for a 750ml bottle.  It’s also available for online purchase at www.wyomingwhiskey.com/national-parks-no5 with complimentary nationwide shipping.

Nikka brings back a beloved 10-year single malt for the first time in a decade
Miyagikyo Single Malt 10 Years Old is the first age-statement release from the distillery since Japanese whisky's aged-stock crunch hit in 2015.
Whisky, bottle, label

Nikka Whisky is one of the most exciting names in Japanese whisky, so when they make a big announcement, it's almost always worth taking an interest. That's especially the case with the release of Miyagikyo Single Malt 10 Years Old, the flagship expression from its Miyagikyo Distillery — the fruit-forward, mountain-set second distillery Nikka built near Sendai, Japan, in 1969.

This release is the first age-statement Miyagikyo since 2015, and it follows the 2022 return of Yoichi Single Malt 10 Years Old, its coastal sibling. Bottled at 45% ABV, the 700ml release has a $174.99 price tag, so it's not exactly an impulse purchase — and with just 1,572 bottles available nationwide, tracking down a pour may be tough in the first place.

Alberta Wants to Become the Next Great Whisky Destination
The province has created a legally protected whisky designation and launched an ambitious trail to showcase its distilleries, terroir, and craft spirits.
Adult, Male, Man

Our friendly neighbors to the north have created a new category of legally protected whisky. Under the Alberta Whisky Act, whisky labeled "Alberta Whisky" must be mashed, fermented, distilled, aged, proofed, and bottled in the western Canadian province. Moreover, it must be made with Alberta water and a mash bill composed predominantly of Alberta-grown grain. The new designation aims to highlight the distinctiveness of Alberta's terroir and whisky-making traditions. The legislation also lays the foundation for the emerging Alberta Whisky Trail, spearheaded by Burwood Distillery.

While not as celebrated as Scotland or Kentucky, Alberta boasts a long and venerable whisky-making tradition. The high prairie, with its cold climate, pristine water, and fertile soil, is ideal for growing rye. Alberta Distillers, founded in 1946 and the oldest distillery in Western Canada, has long been a powerhouse contract producer—more or less Canada's answer to MGP. Now owned by Suntory Global Spirits, it has quietly supplied rye whisky to a host of Canadian and American brands. If you've sipped WhistlePig, Jefferson's, or Very Olde St. Nick, chances are you've tasted rye from Alberta.
