TULSA, Okla. (March 18, 2021) – Major League Fishing (MLF), the world’s largest tournament-fishing organization, announced today a sponsorship agreement with TINCUP Whiskey, one of the fastest growing brands within the whiskey category. The agreement ensures that TINCUP will be showcased across multiple MLF tournament circuits and through exclusive digital content, as well as an official sponsor of the Bass Pro Tour and the Exclusive Whiskey of the MLF BIG5. TINCUP, The Mountain Whiskey, is proud to support the growing outdoor sport of fishing and MLF given the dynamic and challenging nature of the sport, as well as the powerful bonds that are formed between participants in its pursuit.
“This sponsorship agreement reinforces the marketability that professional bass fishing offers,” said MLF President and CEO Jim Wilburn. “The popularity of our sport continues to grow, and the involvement of the TINCUP whiskey brand reinforces this. The passion and loyalty of fishing fans in this country is something that TINCUP recognizes and plans to embrace. MLF is the unquestionable leader in the industry, and this alliance solidifies our commitment to bringing the sport to mainstream America.”
TINCUP will be prominently featured at all Bass Pro Tour, Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit, Toyota Series and Phoenix Bass Fishing league tournaments and will be showcased with the TINCUP Whiskey Winning Moment, which takes place at each Pro Circuit tournament.

TINCUP is also slated to be the presenting sponsor of 30 Bass Fishing League events during the 2021 tournament season.
TINCUP American Whiskey is a blend of two great American whiskeys, each aged in #3 charred oak barrels. “High rye” bourbon, distilled and aged in Indiana, is blended with a small amount of Colorado single malt whiskey. These whiskeys are then cut with Rocky Mountain water and bottled in Colorado. The result is a smooth, yet bold, whiskey fit for enjoying with friends in the great outdoors. TINCUP Whiskey is available nationally in three expressions: American Whiskey (Bourbon plus Colorado Single Malt), Straight Rye and 10-Year Aged.
