BRECKENRIDGE, Colo., August 21, 2025 – Breckenridge Distillery, an award-winning craft distillery and spirits brand by Tilray Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY and TSX: TLRY), is thrilled to announce its latest innovation, Mountain Shot, a crafted experience infused with the natural complexity of mushrooms and distilled into a moment of pure delight. Mountain Shot is a unique beverage, available in whiskey-based and malt-based varieties blended with maitake mushrooms from Japan. It's more than a drink; it's a tribute to those who rise early, stay out late, and never call last run. Mountain Shot captures the free-spirited essence of the Rocky Mountains.  

Mountain Shot enhances the whiskey shot experience by blending rich chocolate with cool, invigorating mint. The infusion of maitake mushrooms (also known as Hen of the Woods) adds a distinct mouthfeel, creating a one-of-a-kind experience for your palate.  Produced at 69 proof and crafted as a shot, mountain town locals and avid adventurers alike can enjoy the whiskey-based beverage mountainside, fireside or bellied up to the bar. The whiskey-based Mountain Shot is available in 750-milliliter bottles, 1-liter bottles and 100-milliliter resealable pouches. A 100-milliliter malt-based pouch of Mountain Shot, produced at 30 Proof, will also be available at convenience stores.   

“Our mission has always been to challenge conventions while honoring the craftsmanship of creating whiskey,” said Bryan Nolt, Founder and CEO at Breckenridge Distillery. “With Mountain Shot, we’ve created something that’s not only unique but also celebrates the diversity of flavors and meets our consumers where they want to be drinking – at the bar, at the base of a mountain, or at their après.”  

Mountain Shot is available now in select U.S. markets in a 750-milliliter bottle, 1-liter bottles and as a portable 100-milliter pouch, so you can take your Mountain Shot wherever your adventure takes you.  

“Mountain Shot is a crafted experience infused with the natural complexities of mushrooms,” says Jessie Unruh, Director of Marketing for Breckenridge Distillery. “It is a toast to nature, friendship and the simple pleasures of life. This brand was created to honor the authentic tie to Breckenridge and its vibe.” 

Curious what this mountain elixir tastes like? You’ll need to grab a bottle or pouch for yourself and some friends. Mountain Shot is available now in select U.S. markets. For more information about Breckenridge Distillery, visit drinkmountainshot.com. Follow Mountain Shot on Instagram @drinkmountainshot   Age 21+. Always enjoy responsibly. Mountain Shot is produced and distributed by Breckenridge Distillery. Learn more about Breckenridge Distillery at breckenridgedistillery.com.
