SIP just announced two outstanding additions to the SIP executive team, Jonathan Marks and Rudy Costello. SIP is committed to the success of our spirits portfolio, and the additions of Jon and Rudy, both highly accomplished and experienced spirits executives, will drive the company forward as we continue to scale and realize significant growth across our businesses. 

SIP is pleased to announce that Rudy Costello has joined SIP as Chief Commercial Officer, bringing over 20 years of experience in the beverage alcohol space. Rudy served as the CEO of Global Stoli Group (Stoli Vodka) and most recently served as the President and Chief Commercial Officer of Long Drink, which grew from 400,000 cases to over 3 million cases under his stewardship. Prior to joining Stoli Group, Rudy spent ten years at Beam Suntory where he held several senior level positions in finance and sales, including Finance Director the East Region, Regional Sales VP for the East Region, and SVP, General Manager for the SGWS Region. Rudy’s deep industry relationships, including with our new nationally aligned distributor, Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits, are complementary and additive to the SIP team. Welcome to SIP, Rudy!

SIP is pleased to announce that Jonathan Marks has joined SIP as Chief Marketing Officer, bringing 15+ years of experience in brand building and strategy. Prior to joining SIP, Jon spent a decade at Beam Suntory where he was a key architect of the Small Batch portfolio’s success globally. Jon was responsible for creation and launch of Beam’s Legent and Little Book whiskey brands and was charged with driving growth on legacy brands such as Basil Hayden, Overholt and Knob Creek, resulting in more than doubling the revenue for the portfolio. Most recently, Jon led the U.S. Makers Mark business, overseeing the development and execution of the total brand performance in North America.  Welcome to the SIP team, Jon!

We are proud to share that Heaven’s Door Revival Tennessee Straight Bourbon Whiskey was recognized as one of the top 5 bourbons in the world by Forbes after receiving Double Gold at the prestigious 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. To earn a Double Gold medal, each bourbon must be ranked gold by every judge on the blind-tasting panel. This year, the competition received over 5000 entries, with bourbon being one of its more popular categories. Revival is non-chill filtered and aged in new American Oak barrels for six years, offering notes of honey maple caramel and nutmeg.
