We are thrilled to announce the launch of BSB Whiskey! Two years in the making, we joined forces once again with award-winning actor, musician, and entrepreneur Jamie Foxx for the exclusive release of BSB Whiskey, an ultra-smooth flavored whiskey. Foxx joins as brand owner and creative director and was instrumental in the design and development of the new look and flavor - embodying the essence of BOLDER, STRONGER, and BETTER, BSB Whiskey’s 70-proof liquid is a masterpiece that perfectly blends the aromatic spice of cinnamon with the rich, comforting sweetness of brown sugar. Brown Sugar Blend, affectionately dubbed “BSB,” is ready to debut and shake up the whiskey category. Thank you to all of our partners who made this launch possible - KLG Public Relations, Owen Maxwell, Great Work, Gourmet Marketing, DCW Media. Congratulations to the BSB Whiskey Team!
