Gentleman’s Box, a premier grooming subscription box for men, and Jim Beam Black®, the world’s highest-rated bourbon according to the 2016 International Wine & Spirits Competition*, have partnered to release a series of limited-edition boxes. Each uniquely-themed Gentleman’s Box will be equipped with a variety of premium accessories that will help any guy of legal drinking age elevate his taste.
“The subscription box industry has been growing at a rate of 200 percent a year for the last five years, and the industry shows no signs of slowing,” said Gentleman’s Box co-Founder Chris George. “The goal of each Gentleman’s Box is to help someone become a better gentleman by discovering new products they would have never tried before. Jim Beam was a legendary southern gentleman and his namesake bourbon represents the heart of our brand, making Jim Beam the perfect partner for our subscribers.
The collaboration will be available for purchase, by subscribing to Gentleman’s Box, nationwide throughout the month of May, just in time for the summer season. Current and new Gentleman’s Box subscribers can order their limited-edition “southern gentleman” box, curated by Jim Beam Black at www.GentlemansBox.com, for $25 (suggested retail value is $100).
