With the bourbon industry being rooted in such long-standing history and tradition, Stephen is excited to bring a fresh take with Gentleman's Cut, stating, "is rich, complex, and bold bourbon is the perfect offering to commemorate life's great occasions, and will be part of a raised-glass toasting moment in the lives of my fans, friends, and family." While entering such an established industry could seem daunting to some, Curry was invigorated by the challenge, hoping to "bring a new face and perspective for bourbon drinkers and make others feel included to enjoy the spirit." e name, Gentleman's Cut, speaks to Stephen's approach to life, on and off the basketball court, and his desire to surround himself with others who approach their own lives and careers with the characteristics of a gentleman. Distilled in 500-gallon copper pot stills, Gentleman's Cut is a rarity in today's American whiskey market as it is one of the few 100% pot still bourbons to be released nationally. is process, producing a graininess that is distinct from the pot still method, delivers a complex tasting profile with a full-bodied palate. e whiskey is then aged for 5-7 years in charred new white oak barrels. e results speak for themselves, with tasting notes of cinnamon, seared caramel, and sweet toasted chestnut permeating each swill of the refined spirit. e bourbon's complex mashbill of 75% Corn, 21% Rye, and 4% Malted Barley is distilled, aged, and bottled by Game Changer Distillery in Boone County, Kentucky.
