(Portland, OR) --  Wheyward Spirit, the award-winning, women-owned specialty spirit brand turning upcycled whey into sustainable spirits, is excited to announce the launch of The Spirited Sampler. This new SKU features 375ml bottles of Wheyward Spirit and Wheyward Wheyskey in one elegant package, offering consumers the best of both worlds in a versatile set for gifting and brand discovery. 

These two Farm-to-Flask Specialty spirits can be used to elevate any cocktail or mixed drink in place of traditional spirits, from light and refreshing spritzes to bold and stirred classics, without the need for an overstocked bar. By showcasing how much can be created from these two spirits, The Spirited Sampler makes it easier than ever to explore the full Wheyward Spirit portfolio and discover a new standard of versatility by delivering a two-bottle bar for less than $50.

“With The Spirited Sampler, we wanted to make it easy for people to experience the Wheyward Spirit portfolio in a way that’s approachable and versatile,” said Emily Darchuk, Founder & CEO of Wheyward Spirit. “Whether you’re stocking your home bar, mixing your first cocktail with us, or sharing a gift, this set lets you explore how different and delicious sustainable spirits can be.”

The launch comes at a time when today’s consumers are seeking premium spirits that deliver an elevated experience with an authentic story they can feel good about. With the rise of at-home cocktail culture and the growing demand for sustainable products, The Spirited Sampler meets curious and intentional customers where they are, offering a more approachable price point for value-conscious shoppers seeking to try high-quality spirits before making a full-size commitment.

The Spirited Sampler includes:

  • 1 x 375ml Wheyward Spirit – a versatile, clear Specialty spirit with naturally-derived notes of oaky vanilla, warm spice, and a subtly sweet finish. 
  • 1 x 375ml Wheyward Wheyskey – the barrel-finished expression of Wheyward Spirit with velvety smooth notes of oaky vanilla, toffee, and a touch of warm spice.

Together, they create a two-bottle bar that works across every cocktail style, making The Spirited Sampler the perfect set for everyday mixing, gifting, or discovering Wheyward for the first time.

Wheyward Spirit’s farm-to-flask approach is at the core of every product, creating meaningful partnerships across the supply chain to upcycle whey and transform it into award-winning spirits. By connecting overlooked resources with craft innovation, Wheyward Spirit is setting a new standard for how spirits can be crafted and enjoyed.

The Spirited Sampler is now available at WheywardSpirit.com with delivery to 41 states.
