Our first ever whiskey, and the first to be produced in Duluth (legally), is a port-barrel aged, maple-cask finished whiskey punctuated by notes of roasted cherry, leather, and yellow cake. for a light but complex finish.
Our unique mash bills and barrel combinations honor tradition and improve upon it all at once. With local grains, seriously, within 50 miles of our distillery, you could say we're in the perfect place for making whiskey.
Nature’s Superior GIFTS—Distilled
All of our whiskey grains come from within 50 miles of our distillery. Well, except for the malted barley, which comes from Shakopee (a whopping two and a half hours away). Our new barrels come from Western Minnesota while our used ones come from our friends at Duluth Barrel Works. Our water comes from Lake Superior, right next to us. What can we say? We’re kind of in the perfect spot for making whiskey. Our whiskies hew to tradition while bending it in playful and delicious ways. We use traditional techniques but explore unique mash bills and barrel combinations to make whiskies unlike what you’ve had before.
