The Couture-Inspired, Ultra-Rare Spirit Honors the Brand's Legacy of Black Excellence, and Will Be Exclusively Auctioned Via Sotheby's to Benefit Native Son

Stitzel-Weller Distillery introduces the rarest expression in I.W. Harper’s 150-year legacy: the I.W. Harper 34-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Aged for over three decades in just four original barrels filled in 1989, this exceptional release was matured entirely at the legendary Stitzel-Weller Distillery. Presented in collaboration with two-time Oscar-nominated actor, director, and activist Colman Domingo, the release marks a striking fusion of heritage, artistry, and cultural purpose. 

Limited to only 11 bottles worldwide, with just 5 offered for sale via Sotheby’s New York, the auction proceeds will benefit Native Son, a platform uplifting and empowering Black queer men. More than a collector’s item, this release is a bold tribute to personal identity, intentional storytelling, and timeless style, setting a new precedent in how ultra-aged bourbon intersects with social impact and legacy.
