To celebrate the historic Stitzel-Weller Distillery first opening its doors 86 years ago, Blade and Bow has re-released it’s 22-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Aged and bottled at the historic Stitzel-Weller Distillery itself, the whiskey will be available in 19 markets as well as on-site at Stitzel-Weller and the distillery’s Garden & Gun Club in Louisville, KY.
“Blade and Bow 22-Year-Old pays homage to the artful passion and celebrated craftsmanship of the famed Stitzel-Weller Distillery,” said Doug Kragel, Lead Educator for Blade and Bow. “With the perfect blend of smoky, spicy and sweet, whiskey enthusiasts seeking an expression of true mastery are sure to be delighted with the rich history that is palpable in every sip.”
Blade and Bow 22-Year-Old is released annually in September, in time for Bourbon Heritage Month, a month-long celebration highlighting the heritage, craftsmanship, tradition and achievements that the bourbon industry has contributed to the United States.
Additionally, Stitzel-Weller Distillery is opening the new Garden & Gun Club. This destination cocktail bar is inspired by Garden & Gun magazine’s hospitality franchise and located on the second floor of the Louisville distillery. In addition to offering a food and drink menu, a 22-Year-Old tasting experience is also available for purchase. The exclusive tasting includes one ounce of Blade and Bow 22-Year-Old in a handcrafted Terrane Glass, alongside a signature wool tartan bag, Blade and Bow enamel pin, and a tasting notes guide.
Blade and Bow 22-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is available now in California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington. Due to the finite amount of liquid available to consumers, the anticipated demand for 22-Year-Old is extremely high. As a result, there is not a guaranteed timeframe of how long the bourbon will be accessible.
