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.

Bourbons
Small Batch Bourbon
These small batches of our flagship spirit consist of about twenty barrels, hand-selected by our distillers, and combined together.
Balanced and full-bodied, this small batch of carefully selected barrels is non-chill filtered to preserve its subtle spice and notes of caramel and vanilla.
Single Barrel Bourbon
(96 Proof)
As they age, each oak barrel imparts its own distinct characteristics to our bourbon.
We’ve selected a unique, exceptional barrel to present as a single bottling that showcases the structure of our larger batches.
Single Barrel Bourbon
(Cask Strength)
From barrel to bottle, this single barrel selection is presented at cask strength and with minimal filtration.
Subtle notes of clove and cinnamon join our bourbon’s characteristic sweetness in this one-of-a-kind bottle.
Rye Whiskeys
Small Batch Rye
These small batches consist of about twenty barrels, hand-selected by our distillers, and combined together.
This high rye mash bill of our small batch preserves the grain’s distinct spice, even after years of age in our Wisconsin rackhouse.
Caramel and chocolate notes from the malt round out this carefully-formulated batch.
Single Barrel Rye
(96 Proof)
Exceptional individual barrels of rye are found in all corners of our Wisconsin rackhouse and pulled aside for our single barrel project.

Single Barrel Rye
(Cask Strength)
From barrel to bottle, this outstanding single barrel selection is presented at cask strength and with minimal filtration.
Notes of dark chocolate, fruit, and licorice join our rye’s characteristic spice in this one-of-a-kind bottle.
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.
Vodkas
Premium
Vodka
Our vodka is distilled with corn and sugar cane and blended with crisp Driftless Area water.
It is effortlessly smooth, soft, and enjoyable without strong characteristics, in the tradition of neutral spirits.
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.
Cucumber
Vodka
Our flavored vodka is distilled with corn and sugar cane and blended with crisp Driftless Area water.
Refreshing, light, and elevated cucumber notes come through in a subtle, yet exciting way.
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.
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.
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.
Limited Releases
American Single Malt
Distilled from a mash composed entirely of malted barley, our American Single Malt is sweet and nutty on the nose with notes of chocolate and a silky, buttery finish.
Our take on a traditionally European style of whiskey sets the standard for a new American tradition.
Bourbon de Naranja
Orange-infused sherry barrels from Spain bring new life to our award-winning 4+ year bourbon.
A finish in these unique barrels adds notes of citrus and cinnamon to our bourbon’s classic caramel and vanilla.
Wheated Bourbon
Aged at least 5 years, our Wheated Bourbon is a softer, sweeter expression of Driftless Glen’s award-winning bourbon.
Notes of butterscotch, vanilla, and caramel complement the subtle wheat aroma of this delectable whiskey.
