“We at the Florida Craft Spirits Association are thrilled to make Florida Bastard available to a wider audience, and we couldn’t have a better partner for this initial release,” said David Cohen, FCSA president, in a prepared statement. “We look forward to getting this unique, one-of-a-kind whiskey out to whiskey enthusiasts across the U.S.”

Florida Bastard is pricing at $85 and is expected to ship in mid-December. It is said of the origins of this whiskey that it “ells the story of the incredible distillers across our great state. Like all legendary bastards, this whiskey was born from multiple homes ranging from Amelia Island to Bradenton and points in between.”
