Jenson Button’s New Whisky Release: A Blend of Racing and Scotch

As a Formula One champion, Jenson Button knows a thing or two about speed and precision. But did you know that he’s also a whisky connoisseur? Button has recently co-founded a new whisky brand called Coachbuilt, which aims to bring together the twin passions of Formula One and fine Scotch.

The inaugural release from Coachbuilt is an 18-year-old blended Scotch, commemorating the iconic Williams FW18 car. This limited edition whisky is a tribute to Button’s Formula One breakthrough with Williams Racing, and it’s a must-have for any racing fan or Scotch collector.

The Coachbuilt Williams 18 Year Old is a smooth and well-balanced sipping experience, with a fruity and spicy flavor profile. It’s been aged in a combination of ex-Sherry and ex-Bourbon casks, coming in at an abv of 48%. With only 3,000 bottles available, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of racing history.

“The launch of our inaugural release is the culmination of my dream to blend my two big passions: racing and Scotch Whisky,” said Jenson Button. “With that said, racing fans and Scotch collectors have a lot to be excited about, as we bring forward some truly unique whiskies – all beautifully blended to create a smooth and well-balanced sipping experience.”

And with a focus on sustainability and social responsibility, New Dawn Distilling is making waves with its new bourbon release.
