The inspiration behind Stephen Curry's Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Father and Son Edition
Stephen Curry has mentioned that he is heavily influenced by his father, Dell Curry, an NBA player for 16 seasons. Curry is entering his 16th season in the NBA as well, and he shared a heartfelt sentiment about his father during an interview with People Magazine. He said,
"My pops set – and raised – the bar for us growing up, which makes this season that much more meaningful and special for our family."
To celebrate his and his father's 16th season in the NBA, the Father and Son Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was launched by Gentleman's Cut.
The Father and Son Edition Whiskey is described on the Gentleman's Cut website as,
"This 100-proof bourbon began distillation in August 2008 with a mashbill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley. The result is a delectable bourbon with notes of sweetness, spiciness, and smoke. An intense profile of dried cherries and caramelized elements jumps out of the glass, and as you delve into the drink, a nuanced hint of fine tobacco leaf can be tasted as it lends a warm earthy feel to the bourbon."
According to Stephen Curry, the bourbon is meant to be shared and enjoyed among those who have influenced and supported you to go after your dreams.
