Jeptha Creed Releasing Red, White & Blue Bourbon To Honor Past, Present Military

Jeptha Creed out of Kentucky recently announced it is releasing a special straight bourbon made from multiple heirloom corn varietals to honor members of the military, past and present.

Jeptha Creed Red, White, & Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon, according to those behind it, has been aged at least 4 years and proofed right at 50% ABV. The mash bill consists of three different varietals of heirloom corn – Bloody Butcher, Heirloom White, and Bruce’s Blue – as well malted rye and malted barley.

Plans call for this whiskey, priced at around $75, to be released through the distillery gift shop, online to KY, ND, AK, D.C., and in select stores throughout KY and IN on November 11th, 2022. Developed to show their appreciation for current and past members of military, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Veteran’s Club Inc of Kentucky.
