Stephen Curry’s Gentleman’s Cut brand has launched a limited-edition bourbon to mark his 16-year milestone in the NBA, which he shares with his father, Dell Curry. This special release is dubbed ‘The Player Exclusive: Father and Son Edition’ and it serves to celebrate both their careers and the passing of the torch between generations.

Gentleman’s Cut’s limited-edition 16-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey boasts a high-proof 100-proof formula and a unique blend of flavors, including sweetness, spice, smoke, and earthy tobacco notes. It is crafted from a mashbill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley. The product is targeted at collectors, bourbon enthusiasts, and fans of the Curry family. With a high retail price of $950, the product is positioned as a luxury item.

Stephen Curry shares about the release: “Just like so many others, I consider my father to be one of the greatest. […] I wanted to bottle this amazing feeling, and share it with the world, and the result was a delectable combination of flavors that came together through the Player Exclusive: Father and Son Edition.”
