Bob Dylan launches his own whiskey

Bob Dylan has launched his own whiskey line, Heaven’s Door.

The singer has teamed up with liquor entrepreneur Marc Bushala for the venture, turning a deconsecrated church in Tennessee into a distillery.

The Heaven’s Door brand encompasses three products – a straight rye, a straight bourbon and a double barrel whiskey – with the bottles featuring imagery inspired by Dylan’s own wrought ironwork sculptures.

The whiskeys will be available in Tennessee, Florida, California, Illinois, New York and Texas from next month, with a wider rollout to follow.

The June 2018 issue of Uncut is now on sale in the UK – with the Rolling Stones on the cover. Elsewhere in the issue, you’ll find exclusive new interviews with Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Françoise Hardy, Eric Burdon, James Taylor, Public Enemy, Eleanor Friedberger and many more. Our free CD showcases 15 tracks of this month’s best new music, including Courtney Barnett, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Ryley Walker, Beach House, Wand, Simone Felice, Dylan Carson and The Sea And Cake.
