Last year, Wyoming Whiskey released a limited-edition bourbon called the Queen of the Tetons in honor of legendary Grizzly 399 after she was killed after being struck by a vehicle. Not only was the bourbon released, but Wyoming Whiskey also donated $20,000 to the GTNP Foundation.

Now, Wyoming's first whiskey distillery is back at it and giving you a rare opportunity to own the special "Queen of the Tetons Bourbon" bottle number 399. The bottle just went up for auction.

Wyoming Whiskey BlockBar-hosted auction for Bottle No. 399 of Queen of the Tetons is now live. The limited-edition bourbon honors the legacy of Grizzly 399, the beloved matriarch grizzly bear tragically killed near Grand Teton National Park in October 2024. This is the only opportunity to own Bottle No. 399 of the sold-out 720-bottle release. Wyoming Whiskey in partnership with BlockBar will be donating one hundred percent of the sale proceeds to the Grand Teton National Park Foundation to support grizzly bear conservation, research, and education.
