This partnership is a key growth engine, providing not only access to thousands of aging barrels and increased production capabilities, but also a physical destination to activate the brand.Through its joint venture with Kennay Farms Distilling, the company is leveraging the distillery as a hub for live events, brand activations, and immersive experiences that bring people directly to the source. These moments create opportunities for ticketed events, on-site sales, merchandise, and limited releases, while strengthening connection to the brand. By turning the distillery into a true destination—not just a place where spirits are made, but where the brand is experienced—the company is defining a unique model that sets it apart in the industry.As part of this expansion, the company is launching a uniquely inspired release rooted in American heritage: the Bella Rio Washington Recipe Rye Whiskey—a revival reflecting the original recipe found in George Washington's whiskey ledgers. This release blends historical authenticity with modern craftsmanship, offering consumers a product shaped by the legacy of America's founding while introducing a compelling new narrative to the whiskey category.&#34;This isn't just about launching another product—it's about building a brand house with depth, story, and multiple revenue streams,&#34; said ROCK'N VP, Andy Roiniotis. &#34;From vodka to bourbon, from live events to historical releases, everything we're building is designed to create something unique that our fans can enjoy and expand value for our investors.&#34;An Opportunity to Invest The Bella Rio Brand House now includes ROCK'N Vodka, Bella Rio Bourbon, joint venture products with Kennay Farms Distilling, and future brand extensions currently in development.
