Spirits
We are located at the edge of the Driftless Area, a unique topographical part of the state that was missed by the last glaciation 15,000 years ago and that now has rugged hills, deep river valleys, rich prairies, and abundant limestone. This local terroir offers not only prime conditions to grow grains, but also a natural sandstone aquifer, allowing us to source grain and water locally and produce our whiskey 100% grain-to-glass.
In addition to bourbon and rye, we have a full range of products that include brandy, vodka, and gin. We take pride in our 44-ft tall column still along with our one-of-a-kind pot still. Most recently rated by Whisky Advocate with a โ90โ for our Bourbon Whiskey, our company has been named โWisconsin Distillery of the Yearโ by New York International Spirits Competition and shared as a โTop Ten US Spirits Brand You Must Tryโ by London Spirits Competition.

Brandy
Brandy
Our quest for the perfect grape took us to France, where the fruit was barreled onsite and aged for five years in French oak. We then cask-finished it in used bourbon barrels, giving our brandy the depth and character which merits its reserve distinction.
Our brandy is characterized by notes of vanilla, caramel, and cherry with a smooth, warm finish.
Available at the distillery + WI retailers + IL retailers.
Vodkas
Lemon
Vodka
Our flavored vodka is distilled with corn and sugar cane and blended with crisp Driftless Area water.
Fresh notes of lemon shine through in this bright and uplifting spirit. Perfect in a Lemon Drop Martini or in any other handcrafted creation.
Available at the distillery + WI retailers + IL retailers.
Gins
WisconGin
WisconGin is not your traditional gin. This intricately balanced spirit takes inspiration from many of Wisconsin's indigenous botanicals and has a 100% corn base.
It's crafted with subtle hints of cardamom, ginseng, juniper, and ginger, and finishes with a clean breath of spearmint. WisconGin is as unique as the Driftless Area.
Available at the distillery + WI retailers + IL retailers.
Navy Strength Gin
A reference to the gin carried aboard British Royal Navy vessels in the 18th century, Navy Strength Gin is presented at 114 proof, an alcohol content high enough to ignite gun powder.
Our own Navy Strength Gin pays homage to this historic, juniper-forward recipe.
Available at the distillery + WI retailers + IL retailers.
Double Cask Gin
Double Cask Gin is infused with an array of unique botanicals, then finished simultaneously in both new and spent oak bourbon barrels, adding another dimension of flavor without sacrificing the character of the botanicals.
This distinctive gin is fit for both the discerning bourbon and gin-drinker alike.
Available at the distillery + WI retailers + IL retailers.
