Grain-to-glass distillery, Bluebird Distilling, recently announced a new partnership with country music star Jordan Davis, recent recipient of the CMA’s Song of the Year.
Jared Adkins, founder and master distiller for Bluebird, said he and Davis were “bonding over their shared love of the perfect bluebird day” when the two decided to collaborate on Bluebird Days Straight American Whiskey, inspired by Davis’ forthcoming album release Bluebird Days.
Bluebird Days Straight American Whiskey is now available nationwide through Bluebird Distilling’s online store as well as at The Wine Chap in Davis’ hometown of Nashville, Tennessee.
And Jordan Davis’ new album, featuring hits Buy Dirt and What My World Spins Around, is out now.
In his statement, Adkins said that Bluebird Days Whiskey celebrates new friendships and the love for a perfect bluebird day.
For this whiskey, he and Davis selected the oldest barrels of Four Grain Bourbon and American Wheat Whiskey from the Bluebird Rack House and worked together to create the perfect blend. That brought about a 6.5-year old bourbon with rich flavors of toffee, butterscotch, marshmallow, and baking spice.
“Bluebird Days Straight American Whiskey is about two worlds coming together … whiskey and music,” Adkins said. “We tasted through several blends and this one was truly special. Perfect for sipping on and listening to Davis’ new album.”
The spirit is available in a 750 ml size with a suggested retail price of $50. It clocks in at 86 proof.
