Riley Green Just Announced a New Venture with Two Whiskey Releases.
Morningside Brands, Inc., a Memphis-based premium spirits company, has announced a new brand partnership with platinum-selling country artist and four-time CMA Award winner Riley Green for the launch of Duck Club™ Bourbon. The partnership aims to blend authenticity, outdoor heritage, and whiskey craftsmanship into a new bourbon line now rolling out across seven states.

Bourbon Inspired by Outdoor Traditions
Duck Club™ Bourbon was created for consumers with a strong connection to the outdoors, particularly waterfowl hunting. The brand supports North American wetland conservation. “I spend as much time as I can outdoors; the sport and the lifestyle around it are a big part of who I am,” said Riley Green, co-founder of Duck Club™ Bourbon. “Duck Club™ Bourbon feels like a natural fit. I’m proud to be a part of a brand that honors the lifestyle I love.”
Commitment to Authenticity and Value
Morningside Brands CEO McCauley Williams stated that the bourbon is positioned to meet consumer demand for heritage and quality. “Duck Club™ Bourbon represents exactly what today’s bourbon drinker is looking for; authenticity, heritage, and whiskey quality at an incredible value,” said Williams. He added that partnering with Green helps build a brand “crafted to have true staying power in the marketplace.” The Silent Group also co-founded the brand, contributing to product development and partnership alignment.
