The partnership with Bushmills, Endemol Shine North America (a Banijay company), and Peaky Blinders’ official brand owner and series producer, Caryn Mandabach Productions, launched just in time for St. Patrick’s Day with an offer for fans that extends through 2022.
“The motivations of the Shelby’s (in Peaky Blinders) are those of family, loyalty and perseverance, which are the same qualities that have put Bushmills at the forefront of whiskey making for hundreds of years,” said Lander Otegui, marketing at Proximo Spirits, in a prepared statement. “Over the course of our partnership, we are excited to connect with a new, dynamic generation of whiskey drinkers through collaborative content and experiences that speak to the history and heart of our brand.”
To kick off the partnership, now through March 17th, fans of Bushmills Irish Whiskey and of the Peaky Blinders TV show can order a Shelby Sour from their local bar, and Bushmills will cover the cost. The cocktail recipe, inspired by Tommy Shelby, features sweet and fruity flavors, balanced by the finish of Bushmills Original Whiskey.
