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 “90” for our Bourbon Whiskey, our company has been named “Wisconsin Distillery of the Year” by New York International Spirits Competition and shared as a “Top Ten US Spirits Brand You Must Try” by London Spirits Competition.
