Hudson Whiskey Partners With New York Mets
Hudson Whiskey announced the launch of its latest limited-edition offering in partnership with the New York Mets. The New York-made duo have teamed up to release a limited edition bottling of Hudson’s award-winning fan-favorite, Bright Lights, Big Bourbon, as the “Official Bourbon of the Mets.”
Produced and bottled in the picturesque Hudson Valley, this liquid celebrates the spirit of New York from the distillery that started the New York whiskey revival.
Hudson Whiskey’s Bright Lights, Big Bourbon is a grain-forward straight bourbon bottled at 92 proof (46% ABV). This expression has won several awards, including the Gold Award at the 2023 New York International Spirits Competition, the 2022 International Spirits Challenge, and the 2022 TAG Spirit Awards.
Distilled from New York corn, rye, and barley and aged in new charred American oak barrels for a minimum of three years. All Hudson Whiskey variants are 100% New York-made, sourcing all ingredients locally from family farmers in the Hudson Valley. This limited-edition bottle will be available for purchase at select retailers in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut with a SRP of $39.99 (750ml).
This exclusive release comes on the heels of a new three-year partnership between the New York Mets and William Grant & Sons USA (WG&S), the independent, family-owned distiller and Hudson Whiskey’s parent company. As of opening day on April 6, 2023, the portfolio of premium spirits is available for purchase at Citi Field for fans to enjoy throughout the season.
In addition to Hudson Whiskey, William Grant & Sons’ additional brands, including Hendrick’s Gin, Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch Whisky, Tullamore D.E.W. Irish Whiskey, Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum, and The Balvenie Single Malt Scotch Whisky, are being offered throughout Citi Field.
Specific locations in the ballpark have customized branding with premium offerings from WG&S. These locations include The Cadillac Club at Payson’s, which houses a Hendrick’s Gin bar, Hudson Whiskey NY Club, Tullamore D.E.W. Centerfield Bar, and two brand new portable bars from Monkey Shoulder and Hudson Whiskey.
