Here's something to make air travel a little sweeter: JetBlue will sell Black Button Distilling's Bespoke Bourbon Cream Liqueur on all of its flights beginning in October.

Black Button’s Bespoke Bourbon Cream is made with Black Button bourbon along with New York State cream. Gold medal winner at the Concours International de Lyon competition and the John Barleycorn Awards, it is delicious served over ice, poured into coffee or drizzled into root beer for a boozy root beer float.

Black Button, which was the first craft distillery to open in Monroe County since Prohibition, was founded on Railroad Street in Rochester in 2012. In July of 2023, it moved into a new state-of-the-art facility on Rochester’s University Avenue. At 28,000 sq. ft., the new distillery and tasting room is quadruple the size of the former location.

Black Button is a licensed New York State Farm Distillery, and nearly all of its ingredients come from within 50 miles of the distillery.

Those who aren't flying Jet Blue can purchase Black Button Bespoke Bourbon Cream at 1344 University Ave., Rochester; in liquor stores throughout New York State; and online at blackbuttondistilling.com.
