Shelbyville – November 02, 2026 -- Jeptha Creed's Red, White & Blue Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Batch 5 goes on sale November 7 at a suggested retail price of $74.99, with a portion of proceeds supporting the nonprofit K9s For Warriors.
The fifth annual release marks the distillery's 10th anniversary

Tasting notes run from red berries to baking spices
The whiskey is a brilliant orange-brown amber. The nose offers red berry fruits, bread pudding, nutmeg and clove. On the palate it is rich and buttery, with caramel, toasted nuts, dried fruit, toffee and a hint of cinnamon. The finish is full and lingering, with dried fruit, sweet oak and warm baking spices.
