DEI in Action: 30 Days of Bourbon #BBSBourbon30

The Black Bourbon Society bridges the gap between the spirits industry and African American Bourbon enthusiasts through its social media platforms, brand-partnered events and exclusive excursions.

As we recognize National Bourbon Heritage Month throughout September, Heaven Hill Distillery is partnering with the BBS for the 2021 30 Days of Bourbon challenge #BBSBourbon30, where the society and followers will taste a different Heaven Hill Distillery Bourbon every day.​​​​​​​

“The BBS challenges traditional direct consumer marketing standards by curating experiences that genuinely engage Black Bourbon enthusiasts,” said Kelsey Shannon, Associate Brand Manager. “We’re proud to partner with organizations like BBS that are also committed to diversity and inclusivity in the spirits industry.”

Follow Black Bourbon Society on social media (Twitter, Facebook and Instagram) to learn more and join in the challenge.

As part of this partnership, Heaven Hill Distillery is also participating in virtual, member-exclusive events Wednesday evenings to sip through several of our brands.
