Limestone Branch Distillery and Ross & Squibb Celebrate with Yellowstone Limited Edition 2025
As 2025 approaches, Limestone Branch Distillery is set to unveil the 2025 Yellowstone Limited Edition, a celebration of a decade of exquisite craftsmanship in their annual limited release series. This special blend, crafted in collaboration with the historic Ross & Squibb Distillery, highlights the rich heritage and innovation behind one of America’s favorite bourbons.
The Journey of Yellowstone Bourbon
Established in 2015, the Yellowstone Limited Edition series pays homage to the finest spirits under the Yellowstone Bourbon name. Recognized for its quality and craftsmanship, this series has gained a dedicated following. Each year, the distillers have pushed the boundaries of flavor and blending, creating unique expressions that continue to impress bourbon enthusiasts.
Founder and Master Distiller Stephen Beam leads the charge with this year's special release, which includes a blend of three distinct mash bills aged for a decade. The barrels sourced from both Indiana and Kentucky represent a significant collaboration that embodies the spirit of innovation that Yellowstone Bourbon is known for. This year’s bottling stands out at 105 proof (52.5% ABV), a nod to the original launch of the Yellowstone Limited Edition.
Tasting Notes and Profile
The 2025 edition tantalizes the senses with its aroma profile enriched by notes of vanilla and oak, accompanied by subtle hints of citrus. As you take your first sip, your palate is greeted with rich flavors of caramel, toffee, and a touch of stone fruit. The finish leaves a delightful lingering essence of charred oak infused with honey, cherry, and cinnamon notes.
The whiskey is presented in a beautifully embossed bottle, featuring a high-quality cork and a striking black and gold label, making it not only a treat for the taste buds but also a visually appealing addition to any collection.
Heritage Meets Innovation
Stephen Beam emphasized the forward-thinking approach of the distillery: "We have done something different with this special annual release every year since 2015. This year’s 10-year anniversary Limited Edition represents my natural progression of experimenting with blending, using three unique mash bills to create a remarkable product."
This collaboration between Limestone Branch and Ross & Squibb signifies not just a blending of spirits but also of traditions from two reputable distilleries. The commitment to quality, maintained over more than a century, reassures consumers of the high standards upheld in each bottle.
The 2025 Yellowstone Limited Edition will be available in September, just in time for Bourbon Heritage Month. Retailers have a suggested price of $99.99 per 750mL bottle, with a limited allocation of 10,000 cases expected to be distributed.
Recognition and Milestones
The previous Yellowstone Limited Edition release garnered accolades including gold medals from prestigious spirits competitions like the ASCOT Awards and the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2025. Such recognition highlights the continuous dedication of the distillers to achieve excellence within the industry.
