At one time, ceramic bourbon decanters were all the rage. World Whiskey Society (WWS) are going back to the future to partner with Ducks Unlimited to create a straight bourbon whiskey bottled in a ceramic mallard duck decanter.

The Ducks Unlimited Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a limited edition collector’s item that pays homage to the tradition of  hunting. The decanter is sculpted in the form of a majestic mallard duck in mid-flight, with every detail paying homage to the time-honored pursuit of the hunt.

“We are proud to partner with Ducks Unlimited to introduce a limited-edition whiskey decanter that celebrates the beauty of conservation and craftsmanship,” says Alex Kogan, CEO of World Whiskey Society. “We’re excited for our fans and collectors of fine whiskey to add our unique Ducks Unlimited bottle to their collection.”

Distilled in Indiana and housed in a handcrafted and hand-painted ceramic decanter, the whiskey boasts an alluring complexity, offering notes of vanilla, citrus, honey, and toasted caramel.

The Ducks Unlimited Straight Bourbon Whiskey is available now for $159.00.

World Whiskey Society (WWS) teamed with Chip Tate, the “father of the American Single Malt,” for its latest release a Japanese Single Malt finished in Bourbon and Ruby Port barrels.

Established in 2020, the World Whiskey Society scours the globe in search of unique distilleries, aiming to be a leader in the rare-whiskey category in the U.S. This year, WWS partnered with Tate, Master Distiller for Innovation at Foley Family Wines, to create a Japanese Single Malt that embodies his whisky sensibility.

“Having the opportunity to work with the World Whiskey Society and this unique Japanese Single Malt was an incredible opportunity,” says Chip Tate, Master Distiller for Innovation at Foley Family Wines. “We worked hand-in-hand, and by combining my expertise with their finishing techniques, we have created a delicious liquid we’re looking forward to getting in our fan’s hands. It’s limited so hopefully they get it while it’s hot!”

Distilled in Japan and composed of 100% Australian Malt, this expression is a double oak age made with Bourbon and Ruby Port barrels, completed with WWS’s finishing methods to create a one-of-a-kind Japanese Single Malt. The result is a 102-proof expression.

“It was an absolute honor and privilege to be able to work with the legendary Chip Tate to craft a one-of-a-kind Japanese Single Malt,” says Alex Kogan, CEO, World Whiskey Society. “We are beyond thrilled the day has come to release this unique, and super limited liquid as part of our Classic Collection.”

Only 200 cases of this World Whiskey Society release are available for $120 on its online shop.
