Old Stubborn is a premium whiskey brand produced by Rising Tide Spirits, a company founded by Ed Bley in 2018. Bley, formerly the Spirits & Beer Manager at the renowned Cork ‘N Bottle store in Crescent Springs, Kentucky, established Rising Tide Spirits to create exceptional, limited-edition whiskeys without the constraints of traditional distilling. His reputation for curating high-quality spirits, such as the award-winning “Old Baldy” blend, laid the foundation for the brand’s success. Both prior batches of Old Stubborn were produced in limited quantities and are no longer in production, making them highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Rising Tide Spirits continues to uphold its commitment to quality and tradition, with plans for future releases that promise to uphold the brand’s esteemed reputation.
