Groundbreaking set for Mississippi’s largest distillery
SUMMARY: Local and state officials will gather in Bolivar County for the groundbreaking of Mississippi’s largest distillery, Rosedale Distilling Company, on Thursday. The distillery will redevelop historic buildings in Rosedale, producing premium spirits inspired by the region’s rich whiskey-making history. Led by Jack and Elizabeth Coleman, who aim to foster local opportunity, the project is expected to create 57 jobs and attract 40,000 annual visitors by 2025. With an investment of $25 million, the 130,000-square-foot facility will include retail spaces, tasting rooms, and museums celebrating Mississippi icons, boosting economic and cultural tourism in the area.

SUMMARY: Republican Senator Roger Wicker has successfully defeated Democratic challenger Ty Pinkins in Mississippi’s U.S. Senate race. This victory marks Wicker’s fourth election win since he first assumed office in 2007. As the current ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Wicker could become its chair if Republicans gain a Senate majority. Pinkins, who ran an active campaign but struggled with financial backing, previously lost the 2023 election for Mississippi Secretary of State. He is a military veteran and Georgetown Law graduate, challenging Wicker after being unopposed in the Democratic primary election.
