‘Kirk Bourbon Whiskey’ Launches Line of STAR TREK Spirits

Another new Star Trek product debut kicks off this Wednesday morning — this time with an adult twist — as Chronicle Collectibles spin-off company Silver Screen Bottling Co. has revealed the first in a line of Trek-themed bottled spirits.

Announced via StarTrek.com and their official websiteJames T. Kirk Straight Bourbon Whiskey is set to debut at San Diego Comic Con next month, before being released for general distribution later this year. Trek artists Michael Okuda and Doug Drexler are noted as having contributed to the packaging design.

The product release claims that this bourbon is touted to “celebrate [Kirk’s] bold spirit of adventure,” and includes this detail on the spirits themselves:

A serious Bourbon selected from choice barrels from Kentucky, Tennessee, and Indiana. Aging in range from 4 years old to 12 years old, each small batch release of James T. Kirk Bourbon exhibits a depth and richness seen in only the finest Bourbon.

Crafted with the highest respect for the whiskey and for the man that bears its name, James T. Kirk Straight Bourbon Whiskey is for the serious Star Trek fan and serious Bourbon fan, alike. Notes of caramel, Asian five spice, and pecan are not to be missed in this very special small-batch Bourbon.

Some fans immediately noted on social media that a Kentucky bourbon product would seem to be more in line with a Dr. Leonard McCoy themed release, rather than Jim Kirk, and the company quickly replied with hints of additional products already headed in that direction:

While this will be debuting at SDCC next month — the company will be at the Chronicle Collectibles booth in San Diego — we’ve also confirmed that Silver Screen Bottling will be at STLV in Las Vegas this August as well.

Interestingly, Silver Screen Bottling’s official website also seems to indicate that they’ve acquired a product license for the full range of Star Trek properties — from the Original Series through the films and even the Kelvin Timeline movies — so it will be interesting to see what else is in their plans. (We’ve reached out to SSB for confirmation on the license information.)

This James T. Kirk Straight Bourbon Whiskey product is set to be available starting October 1 and can be preordered now for $59.99 in the US, while international customers can preorder for $64.95.
