Jeptha Creed, the Kentucky craft distillery owned by a mother-daughter duo Joyce and Autumn Nethery, offering a range of award-winning spirits, proudly announces the launch of its third batch of Red, White & Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Developed to show appreciation for current and past military members, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the non-profit organization CreatiVets.
Available starting November 7, 2024, the Red, White & Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is the third batch of the expression that Jeptha Creed began three years ago to honor the anniversary of the opening, which occurred on Veterans Day in 2016. At 50% ABV/100 Proof, RWB3 offers a rich and complex fall sipping experience. The mash bill includes the deep red 25% Bloody Butcher Corn, 25% Heirloom White Corn, 25% Bruce's Blue Corn (created by Bruce Nethery, the husband and father of the ownership duo, and bred from blue Claridge and blue poppy corn), 20% Malted Rye, and 5% Malted Barley. In the glass, it presents a shimmering orange-brown amber hue. On the nose, there is a delightful mosaic of dark cherry, orange peel, and vanilla. Upon tasting, enjoy flavors of crisp apple, complemented by warm notes of cinnamon and vanilla. The finish is long and lingering, filled with caramel, apricot, and stone fruits, leaving a satisfying depth of flavor.
“We're thrilled to release Batch Three of our Red, White & Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon,” says Joyce Nethery, Master Distiller and CEO of Jeptha Creed Distillery. “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.”
CreatiVets offers opportunities for relief and healing for the men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country. Their purpose is to use various forms of art, including songwriting, visual arts, music, and creative writing, to help disabled Veterans cope with service-related trauma by fostering self-expression in a way that allows them to transform their stories of trauma and struggle into an art form that can inspire and motivate continued healing. Through compassion, they are helping Veterans live again. All donations from this special bourbon release will directly support CreatiVets' mission to empower Veterans through the arts, giving them a platform to share their stories and find hope through creative outlets.
“We are deeply grateful to Jeptha Creed for standing by our nation’s heroes and amplifying our mission in such a meaningful way,” says Kyle Yepson, CreatiVets Deputy Director. ”Whether it's art, music, or community building, these funds will provide Veterans with the skills needed to share their experiences in new ways. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of Veterans across the country.”
In celebration of the release, Jeptha Creed Distillery will host a Veterans Day tribute to our troops with a color guard ceremony, guest speakers, bottle signings, light appetizers, and more on November 7, 2024. For more information, visit https://jepthacreed.com/event/
