To start, we focus on being transparent and upholding strong values. Each summer, we will release an annual sustainability report that outlines our internal assessment of our commitment to three key areas of social responsibility: community service, charitable contributions, and free advertising support. We are dedicated to being authentic and open, and we will demonstrate our commitment to all parties involved in the bourbon sector.
