Our friends at Jeptha Creed Distillery will celebrate their 7th anniversary and the release of a new batch of Red, White, and Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon on Monday, November 11. The Veterans Day date is appropriate since some of the proceeds from the new bourbon will benefit USA Cares. The organization helps military veterans, service members, and their families with financial and job training assistance.
The Red, White, and Blue series is made with three different colors of corn by the Shelbyville, Kentucky distillery.
For the release day on Monday, the distillery and visitors center will be open from 11:00 a.m. to 6 p.m. Stop by at 11:00 a.m. for “a color guard ceremony, guest speakers, bottle signings, light appetizers, tastings, and more.” Go here for more information: https://jepthacreed.com/event/red-white-and-blue-straight-bourbon-release-day-2/
