Copper & Kings American Brandy Company, part of Bourdon Spirits Company, has unveiled its new flagship portfolio – three exceptional spirits that redefine the American brandy category while honoring the brand’s rebellious Louisville roots.
The new lineup, launching this month, represents the next chapter for Copper & Kings: a return to authenticity, craft, and creative innovation.
The Core Portfolio:
- Six-Year American Brandy V.S.O.P. – A refined expression aged six years and bottled at 86 proof. Smooth, complex, and distinctly American, it delivers exceptional quality at an accessible $19.99 on shelf.
- Six-Year American Apple Brandy (Bottled-in-Bond) – A bold and honest spirit crafted under the strict standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act, offering robust apple character and deep authenticity. Retailing at $24.99 on shelf.
- Straight Bourbon Whiskey – A masterful blend of straight bourbons aged 5 to 15+ years, finished for up to three years in brandy barrels. This innovative crossover bridges two great traditions, creating something unmistakably Copper & Kings. Retailing at $29.99 on shelf.
“These releases are more than new bottles, they’re a statement of who we are,” said Rob Bourdon, Founder of Bourdon Spirits Company. “We didn’t set out to follow bourbon. We set out to reclaim America’s original spirit – brandy – and to do it with integrity, craftsmanship, and a sense of adventure that feels truly American.”
The new portfolio is available now at Copper & Kings Distillery in Louisville’s Butchertown neighborhood, with select distribution rolling out.
This launch follows Bourdon Spirits Company’s August 2025 acquisition of Copper & Kings from Constellation Brands, marking the company’s first major step in shaping a new era for the brand. From its reimagined packaging and visitor experience to its continued innovation in brandy and bourbon, Copper & Kings is doubling down on craft production, clear age statements, and value transparency.
