Breckenridge Distillery Unveils Limited-Edition Collectors Art Series Collaboration with Renowned Artist Miles Toland

Globe and Mail7 hours ago
BRECKENRIDGE, Colo., July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Breckenridge Distillery, one of the most-awarded craft distilleries in the U.S., and a craft spirits brand by Tilray Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY and TSX: TLRY), proudly announces the fifth edition of its acclaimed Collectors Art Series. This year, the distillery partnered with muralist and painter Miles Toland to create a breathtaking label and mural as part of its limited release, the Breckenridge Calvados Cask Finish.
Born in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and currently based in Spokane, Washington, Toland is known for his immersive murals and studio work that explore the liminal realms between sleep and wakefulness. His art blends geometric patterns and natural elements to express the spiritual connection between humanity and the unknown. In this edition of the Collectors Art Series, his design captures a transcendent moment in nature—where a figure, surrounded by Colorado's Rocky Mountains and lark buntings, dissolves into a mandala of harmony, balance, and unity.
'Blending is everything in my paintings,' says Toland. 'Just like whiskey, it's about creating bridges—between shadow and light, between form and formlessness. To have my work featured on a bottle of whiskey is an exciting fusion of two art forms that celebrate complexity and craftsmanship.'
The label design will appear on the Breckenridge Calvados Cask Finish, bottled at 95 proof / 47.5% ABV. This limited release continues the tradition of the Distillery's artful cask finishes, offering rich aromas of freshly peeled red apples with warm oak and creamy vanilla and a hint of cinnamon spice on the nose, and a smooth entry of caramel, baked apple, and vanilla with layers of sweet oak and peppery spice on the palate. The finish lingers with a comforting touch of cinnamon.
As with past editions, a donation of $5 per bottle sold will benefit Keep RiNo Wild (KRW), a 501(c)(3) whose mission is to provide and advocate for permanent, affordable community creative space within the district, to support and bolster the artist community which is here, as well as provide educational programming, events, classes and experiences for all ages, backgrounds and socio-economic groups.
'Miles' work dives into the mystical and unseen, and that mirrors the sensory journey we try to create with our whiskeys,' said Bryan Nolt, founder of Breckenridge Distillery. 'This collaboration is another chapter in our ongoing celebration of blending—color, spirit, and culture.'
Breckenridge Collectors Art Series releases have earned numerous accolades, including 2023 Best Blended LTD Release and 2020 Icons of Whisky's Campaign Innovator of the Year at the World Whiskies Awards, along with Gold and Double Gold medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Breckenridge Collectors Art Series 5 will be available starting July 1, exclusively at Breckenridge Distillery and the Main Street Tasting Room in Breckenridge, Colorado, for $125. You can visit Toland's latest mural behind Number Thirty Eight in Denver, Colorado at 3560 Chestnut Pl, Denver, CO 80216, along with the 2024 mural by Abby Wren and 2022 mural by Alexandrea Pangburn.

Jury returns for second day of deliberations in Sean (Diddy) Combs's sex trafficking trial

A jury returned Tuesday to deliberate for a second day at hip-hop mogul Sean (Diddy) Combs's federal racketeering and sex trafficking trial. Jurors were back behind closed doors weighing whether prosecutors proved the charges at a trial that began in early May. Combs's lawyers and prosecutors, meanwhile, began the day wrangling in the courtroom with Judge Arun Subramanian over how he planned to answer the jury's latest question. Jurors ended the day Monday by asking the judge for clarification about what qualifies as drug distribution, an aspect of the racketeering conspiracy charge that will help determine whether Combs can be convicted or exonerated on the count. Subramanian said he would remind jurors of the instructions he gave them on that part of the case before they started deliberating on Monday. Combs's lawyers had pushed for a more expansive response, but prosecutors argued — and Subramanian agreed — that doing so could end up confusing jurors more. While the lawyers debated, Combs sat in court, glancing between the action at the front of the courtroom and back to his mother, Janice Combs. Outside the courthouse, a handful of supporters of Combs held signs with messages like "Free Diddy" written across them. There were also a few livestreamers present — non-legacy media folks who have been consistently going live on social media platforms like TikTok and YouTube from just outside the courthouse to share the most explosive details of the trial. WATCH | Jury begins deliberations in Combs's sex trafficking trial: Jury begins deliberations in Sean (Diddy) Combs's sex trafficking trial 23 hours ago Duration 3:51 The jury has started deliberations in the trial of music mogul Sean (Diddy) Combs, who faces counts of racketeering and sex trafficking. Combs could face life in prison, if convicted. On Monday, the panel deliberated over five hours without reaching a verdict. Prosecutors say Combs for two decades used his fame, fortune and a roster of employees and associates to help him coerce and force two different girlfriends to repeatedly perform sexually with male sex workers for days at a time while he watched and sometimes filmed the drug-fuelled events. Combs is charged with five counts — one of racketeering conspiracy, two of sex trafficking and two of transportation to engage in prostitution. Defence lawyers contend prosecutors are trying to criminalize Combs's swinger lifestyle. If anything, they say, Combs's conduct amounted to domestic violence, not federal felonies. Combs, 55, could face 15 years in prison to life behind bars if he is convicted of all charges. After pleading not guilty, Combs chose not to testify as his lawyers built their arguments for acquittal mostly through lengthy cross-examinations of dozens of witnesses called by prosecutors, including some of Combs's former employees who took the witness stand reluctantly only after being granted immunity. Barely an hour into deliberations on Monday, the jury foreperson sent a note to the judge, saying that there was one juror "who we are concerned cannot follow your honour's instructions. May I please speak with your honour or may you please interview him?" The judge decided instead to send jurors a note reminding them of their duties to deliberate and obligation to follow his instructions on the law. By day's end, the jury seemed back on track, sending the note about drug distribution.

Jury returns to deliberate for a second day at Sean ‘Diddy' Combs' sex trafficking trial

(Photo by Willy Sanjuan/Invision/AP, File) NEW YORK (AP) — A jury returned to deliberate for a second day Tuesday at hip-hop mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs ' federal racketeering and sex trafficking trial. Jurors were back behind closed doors weighing whether prosecutors proved the charges at a trial that began in early May. Combs' lawyers and prosecutors, meanwhile, began the day wrangling in the courtroom with Judge Arun Subramanian over how he planned to answer the jury's latest question. Jurors ended the day Monday by asking the judge for clarification about what qualifies as drug distribution, an aspect of the racketeering conspiracy charge that will help determine whether Combs can be convicted or exonerated on the count. Subramanian said he would remind jurors of the instructions he gave them on that part of the case before they started deliberating on Monday. Combs' lawyers had pushed for a more expansive response, but prosecutors argued — and Subramanian agreed — that doing so could end up confusing jurors more. On Monday, the panel deliberated over five hours without reaching a verdict. Prosecutors say Combs for two decades used his fame, fortune and a roster of employees and associates to help him coerce and force two different girlfriends to repeatedly perform sexually with male sex workers for days at a time while he watched and sometimes filmed the drug-fueled events. Defense lawyers say prosecutors are unjustly basing federal crimes on what Combs did in the bedroom with his girlfriends as they participated in the swinger lifestyle and on acts of domestic violence involving their client. Combs, 55, could face 15 years in prison to life behind bars if he is convicted of all charges. After pleading not guilty, Combs chose not to testify as his lawyers built their arguments for acquittal mostly through lengthy cross examinations of dozens of witnesses called by prosecutors, including some of Combs' former employees who took the witness stand reluctantly only after being granted immunity. When jurors first left the room to begin deliberating on Monday, Combs sat for a while slumped in his chair at the defense table before standing and turning toward three rows of spectators packed with his family and friends. Those supporters held hands and lowered their heads in prayer, as did Combs, who was several feet from them in the well of the courtroom. After they finished, they together applauded, and so did Combs, still clapping as he turned back toward the front of the room. Combs also showed off two books he's reading: 'The Power of Positive Thinking' by Norman Vincent Peale and 'The Happiness Advantage' by Shawn Achor. Barely an hour into deliberations, the jury foreperson sent a note to the judge, complaining that there was one juror 'who we are concerned cannot follow your Honor's instructions. May I please speak with your Honor or may you please interview him?' The judge decided instead to send jurors a note reminding them of their duties to deliberate and obligation to follow his instructions on the law. By day's end, the jury seemed back on track, sending the note about drug distribution. Michael R. Sisak And Larry Neumeister, The Associated Press
