How We Came To Be
Bourbon Trading Cards by theBOURBONdon is an artist-driven project rooted in original illustration, bourbon culture, and the nostalgia of classic trading cards. Each card features a hand-illustrated bottle paired with concise, factual distillery information—created to be collected, shared, and talked about.
Founded and illustrated by Don Colangelo, the project is produced entirely through original digital artwork, with every card created by hand. The cards range from iconic brands to emerging distilleries, obscure bottles, and long-forgotten finds.
