Ketel One Launches Arnold Palmer Commemorative Bottle, Donates $100K to the Golf Legend’s Charity
Apr. 11, 2017
Throughout the course of Arnold Palmer’s rise to becoming a legend of the links, there were many numbers that defined the golfing great.
62 PGA Tour wins.
7 major titles.
1 drink.
There aren’t many associations more fabled than that of the late, great Arnold Palmer and Ketel One. His kindred spirit was a post-round reward always waiting for him at the 19th hole, and it was a pairing that inspired the makers of Ketel One.
"Mr. Palmer stood for the same things we stand for as a family: authenticity, integrity and generosity,” said Carl Nolet Jr., President and CEO of Nolet Spirits.
Honoring the legacy of “The King” is the limited edition Arnold Palmer Collector’s Edition bottle of Ketel One Vodka, which launched at the recent 2017 Arnold Palmer Invitational. The commemorative bottle reads, “Dear Mr. Palmer, This one’s for you.” Ketel One calls it a thank you for the impact he had on the world of golf, producing generations of fans known as “Arnie’s Army.”
The name bestowed to his faithful fans eventually became the name for Arnie’s charitable foundation. “Arnie’s Army” teed off in 1960, and works every day to invest in the well-being and development of children, supporting health and wellness initiatives, and strengthening the community and the environment. The mission inspired Ketel One to join the cause, and the vodka brand has generously donated $100,000 to Arnie’s Army Charitable Foundation to ensure Mr. Palmer’s legacy lives on for generations to come.
“Arnold Palmer set a high standard by making golf what it is today – but it was his accomplishments off the course that truly made him one of a kind,” said Nolet Jr.
Ketel One’s Arnold Palmer Collector’s Edition bottle will be available throughout the rest of 2017. Ask your Breakthru Sales Consultant about stocking up on this product that is a must-have for any golf fan.
