Chris Stapleton joins the ranks by creating Traveller Whiskey
Everywhere you look, you see lots of celebrities and famous people creating their own alcohol brands. Chris Stapleton is the latest to join those ranks but it feels more monumental.
Created in collaboration with Buffalo Trace Distillery's Harlen Wheatley, the two decided to team up to grab something as powerful and smooth as Chris Stapleton's singing voice. At 90 proof per bottle, Traveller Whiskey is a mixture of flavors from sweetness, spice, and even some fruitiness.
While it did take some time for these two to perfect Traveller Whiskey, a lot of hard work along with trial and error proved to be the key. Thankfully, you don't have to wait any longer to get your very own bottle of Traveller Whiskey as it's now being released nationwide at stores, bars, and restaurants.
The MSRP for a bottle of Traveller Whiskey is $39.99 which honestly is a pretty decent price and proves just how big Chris Stapleton is and how vast his impact is.

Of course, we're here to talk about food and drinks but one thing I have to note is that Traveller Whiskey feels like something new for Stapleton. He's already made such a name for himself with the song, "Tennessee Whiskey" and it's wild to see him making his own now. It's awesome to see him branching out and putting his name on what has become his namesake in a way.
In addition, this collab with Chris Stapleton feels like the turning of a page as it comes to country stars and food collabs. While we've seen these in the past, I don't feel like we've seen someone like Chris Stapleton do something like this. Yes, there are the popular TikTok artists and those who are hyped but Stapleton is something new and I love that.
Plus it's just nice to see a star who feels so genuine putting his name on a product. Some celebrity alcohol brands feel forced but I'm happy to see Chris Stapleton trying this out. He's such a great singer and he wouldn't steer us wrong so there's no way I couldn't feature it.
