The world of whisky is abuzz with exciting new releases, collaborations, and limited editions. From Glenmorangie’s stunning 23-year-old single malt, inspired by Japanese artist Azuma Makoto, to Breckenridge Distillery’s fourth edition of the Collectors Art Series, featuring a whiskey label and mural designed by Los Angeles-based artist Abby Wren, there’s no shortage of innovative and artistic expressions of this beloved spirit.
Glenmorangie’s latest release is a true masterpiece, with a bottle design that’s almost too beautiful to open. Almost. The 23-year-old single malt is inspired by the Japanese concept of ‘shinra bansho,’ which refers to all things in nature. The whisky is finished in Chardonnay casks from Burgundy, resulting in a complex and nuanced flavor profile with notes of lemon balsam, poached pears, and cocoa powder.
Meanwhile, Breckenridge Distillery’s Collectors Art Series is a celebration of creativity and collaboration. The fourth edition features a whiskey label and mural designed by Abby Wren, who uses bold, vibrant colors to spread a message of inclusivity and empowerment. A donation of $5 per bottle will be made to SOS Outreach, a nonprofit organization that uses mentorship, outdoor adventure, and a progressive curriculum to foster a deep sense of belonging in young people.
But that’s not all - Wild Turkey has also released a new rye whiskey that’s getting rave reviews. The 10-year-old rye is part of the Master’s Keep series, and is a testament to the quality of liquid that Wild Turkey is known for. With notes of vanilla, black pepper, nutmeg, salted caramel, and brown sugar, this whiskey is a must-try for any rye enthusiast.
And finally, Remus Bourbon has released a new limited edition bourbon inspired by baseball legend Babe Ruth. The Remus Babe Ruth Reserve is a blend of three bourbons, each high in rye and aged for between six and seven years, combined into one special release.
Whether you’re a whisky connoisseur, a bourbon enthusiast, or just looking to try something new, there’s never been a better time to explore the world of spirits. So why not pour yourself a dram, sit back, and enjoy the ride?
