Elijah Craig is raising a glass to golf’s biggest team contest with the debut of its 2025 Ryder Cup Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon and kicking off the celebrated “Road to Ryder Cup” campaign.
As the Official Bourbon and Worldwide Supplier of the Ryder Cup, Elijah Craig continues to mix Kentucky craftsmanship with golf culture—serving fans innovative spirits and one-of-a-kind experiences both at Bethpage Black and afar.
Toasting a New York Homecoming with Flavor and Heritage
The 2025 release is uniquely rooted in New York heritage, where the Ryder Cup returns this fall. Matured Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon is finished with 75% toasted sugar maple and 25% toasted applewood staves—chosen for their local significance to the Empire State. Each element is aged separately for eight weeks before being blended and bottled at a robust 94 proof (47% ABV).
On the nose, expect hints of rich maple syrup and apple pie. The palate opens with sweet maple and layers of candy apple and caramel, leading to a soft, chocolate-kissed finish balanced by a touch of pepper. Each 750ml bottle features a cork and gold-seal wood topper, packaged in a collector’s gift box adorned with the Ryder Cup logo—perfect for bar carts and whiskey shelves.
Max Stefka, Associate Vice President, Elijah Craig Bourbon, shared, “Elijah Craig is proud to once again be the Official Bourbon of the Ryder Cup, and we could think of no better way to honor this one-of-a-kind competition’s return to New York than with a Bourbon that The Empire State itself had a hand in inspiring. It’s the perfect way to ‘cheers’ the teams and all the thrills they’ll bring golf fans at Bethpage Black and around the world. And a special cheers to Elijah Craig Golf Ambassador Bob MacIntyre on making his second consecutive Ryder Cup appearance.”
Fan Immersion: Cocktails, Collectibles, and the Speakeasy
Fans can experience Elijah Craig’s world-famous Bourbon on-site at Bethpage Black in the brand’s exclusive speakeasy-style lounge, “The Elijah Craig Speakeasy,” set within the Fan Zone. Spectators will enjoy specialty cocktails, including The Mulligan—an official Ryder Cup drink blending Elijah Craig Bourbon, iced tea, and lemonade, capped with a lemon slice “hole-in-one” and flag garnish.
Luke Reissman, PGA of America Senior Director, Global Partnerships, added, “Elijah Craig’s world-renowned Bourbon will once again be an incredible part of the spectator experience at the Ryder Cup. From raising a glass at the Elijah Craig Speakeasy onsite at Bethpage Black to savoring the moment at home with a Limited-Edition 2025 Ryder Cup Small Batch Bourbon, there are multiple ways for spectators to celebrate the 2025 Ryder Cup with Elijah Craig.”
Elijah Craig’s support in golf continues year-round, with ties to PGA TOUR stars and broadcasters, and recognition as the Official Bourbon of PGA of America.
