WHAT: Advertising Age and iHeartMedia come together with Bulleit Frontier Whiskey to create Tagline, the new definitive podcast for creators and consumers to listen, learn and laugh over cocktails as some of the most successful people in and around culture today discuss their craft.
As the presenting sponsor of Tagline season one, Bulleit Frontier Whiskey will work with AdAge and iHeartMedia to craft stories and experiences centered around the cultural frontier.

The premier episode features Jeff Bell, 2013 World Class American Bartender of the Year.
Tagline will be one of the first podcasts to benefit from iHeartMedia’s recently announced partnership with ART19 to provide first-of-its-kind listening data about when users start, stop, and skip during an episode, as well as listener demographics.

About Bulleit® Frontier Whiskey
The Bulleit Distilling Co. was founded in 1987 by Tom Bulleit, whose Bulleit Bourbon is inspired by a family tradition. Bulleit Rye, a straight rye whiskey, was added to the portfolio in 2011 to critical acclaim, and the brand's third variant, Bulleit Bourbon 10-Years Old, was introduced in 2013. Bulleit whiskeys use a large amount of rye grain, which gives them their distinctive bold, spicy taste. Bulleit ranks as one of the fastest-growing whiskeys in America, which Tom largely credits to word of mouth recommendations. In 2014, Bulleit broke ground on a new $115 million distillery located in Shelby County, Ky., anticipated to be operational by early 2017. Guests are invited to learn more about the past, present and future of Bulleit by visiting the Bulleit Frontier Whiskey Experience at Stitzel-Weller in Louisville, Ky., a member of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail® tour.
