As a distillery-exclusive product, Bend & Steal has grown in popularity since its initial release in early 2021. The whiskey gets its unique name from the process of “stealing” bits from the best barrels in the country and “bending” them with Firefly barrels to create a perfectly balanced whiskey. A tribute to the art of distilling, aging and perfecting whiskey, each design element of the new bottle label highlights the process and tools that bring this spirit to life. From the metallic copper barrel to the lock, whiskey thief and still, the contemporary label design is eye-catching.
