MGP Ingredients' Luxco Branded Spirits division has launched Yellowstone Recollection Bourbon, a non-chill filtered, 110-proof whiskey aged eight years and priced at $69.99 per 700ml. Nationwide availability of this premium, heritage-inspired decanter expression could bolster branded spirits revenue and margin in fiscal 2026.
1. Product Details
Yellowstone Recollection Bourbon is non-chill filtered, bottled at 110 proof and aged eight years. Crafted by seventh-generation Master Distiller Stephen Beam, it offers vanilla crème brûlée and dark cherry aromas with caramel, butterscotch and charred oak on the palate, finishing with grain, mocha and warm spice notes.
2. Brand Heritage and Design
The expression revives the brand’s late-19th-century back bar decanters with an ornate embossed bottle featuring Yellowstone Lower Falls. The design nods to Yellowstone Bourbon’s origins at Limestone Branch Distillery and its legacy as the "Greatest American Whiskey".
3. Market Availability and Pricing
Recollection Bourbon will be available nationwide at select retailers starting this month, with a suggested retail price of $69.99 for a 700ml bottle. This marks the first broad release beyond Limestone Branch Distillery exclusives.
4. Implications for MGPI
As part of MGP Ingredients' Luxco Branded Spirits division, the launch targets the premium bourbon segment to drive higher-margin branded spirits revenue. Offering a unique heritage-driven product could expand the distillery’s market share and support fiscal 2026 growth.
