Copper & Kings American Brandy Co. has introduced the Kings Bottle Club, a quarterly membership offering access to the Louisville distillery’s rarest bottles and exclusive absinthe barrels. The club launches its first member-only bottle in September 2026.
The program gives members access to a hand-selected standout bottle each quarter. Selections will include ultra-aged American brandies, rare cask finishes, and specialty spirits from the distillery’s archives.
Members will gain access before the wider public, and select bottlings will be available only to members at the distillery.
