About Cutwater Spirits:

At Cutwater, we are explorers, charting the course with adventure in mind. We meticulously distill our award-winning portfolio of spirits including whiskeys, vodka, gin, rums, tequilas and liqueurs and incorporate them into our canned lineup. Armed with some heavy experience and boundless determination, we invite all who share our passion to join our journey.

When our founder and master distiller Yuseff Cherney began making spirits, it was just a hobby in the back of his brewery. He custom-built his first pot still from an old beer fermenter to distill rum, vodka, gin, whiskey and more. Driven by his experimental nature and strong commitment to quality, Yuseff and his team have grown Cutwater Spirits from a passion project into an award-winning craft spirits brand. He swiftly pioneered a category with the introduction of Cutwater’s canned classic cocktails. Now, we can all enjoy a great cocktail in the places we want to be whether it’s fishing at sea, hiking abroad, or a backyard barbecue. You can still find Yuseff at our production facility in San Diego where he is focused on perfecting recipes for Cutwater’s ever-expanding range of exceptional spirits and canned cocktail offerings. Let the adventure continue.

1620 Distilling Red Dirt Road Small Batch Bourbon

1620 Distilling Red Dirt Road Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey 40%-ABV, 750ml bottles.

About 1620 Distilling:

1620 Distilling is a small-batch bourbon distillery in Prestonsburg, Kentucky, founded by a family that honors the legacy of their ancestor, George Thorpe, who came to America in 1620. Thorpe learned to distill corn from Native Americans and became known as the "Grandfather of Corn Whiskey". The company initially sourced its products but plans to begin distilling its own whiskey on-site soon.

• Company story: The distillery is named after the year 1620, when George Thorpe arrived in America and began experimenting with distilling corn whiskey. The brand is a family-owned and operated business that aims to continue this 400-year legacy.
• Products: Their initial offerings include a Small Batch Bourbon and a Full Proof Bourbon. They also produce vodka from corn and have developed a bourbon-based sauce.
• Mash bill: The Small Batch Bourbon is made with a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley.
• Awards: The Small Batch Bourbon won a Double Gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
• Location and tasting room: The distillery is located in Prestonsburg, Kentucky, and features a tasting room where visitors can sample their spirits.
  
  

In 1620, George Thorpe, our 7th great-grandfather, arrived in America with the intention of establishing a college. However, his legacy would grow far beyond education. Upon meeting the Native Americans of the region, George was introduced to their most vital crop—corn. In the fall of that year, he made a groundbreaking decision: substituting corn for barley to distill America’s first corn whiskey. This innovation earned George the title of the “Grandfather of Corn Whiskey,” not just in our family, but in American history.

In a letter home, George affectionately described his creation as a “soe good drinke of Indian corn,” even declaring it superior to “good stronger English beer.”

Today, we proudly carry on George’s legacy, honoring four centuries of tradition by crafting our own version of that “soe good drink,” a bourbon that blends history, craftsmanship, and bold flavor.

Whiskey Thief Distilling The Good Of The Order Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey 63.5%-AbV, 750ml bottles.

About Whiskey Thief Distilling:

Whiskey Thief Distilling Co. is a craft distillery in Kentucky known for its unique, hands-on experience where visitors can taste and bottle their own single-barrel, uncut, and unfiltered bourbon or rye whiskey straight from the barrel. It operates two locations: a working farm and distillery in rural Franklin County and a tasting room in the NuLu neighborhood of Louisville.

Overview

Whiskey Thief Distilling Co. offers an authentic, small-batch experience that sets it apart from larger, more commercial distilleries on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.

• Farm-to-Bottle Philosophy: The distillery is situated on a 127-acre working farm where it grows its own corn and grains used in its pot-still distillation process.
• "Thieving" Experience: The signature offering is the "Uncut & Unfiltered Experience," where guests use a traditional copper tool called a "whiskey thief" to sample whiskey from various barrels and, if they choose, fill their own bottle to take home.
• Atmosphere: Both locations offer a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, often featuring live music and food trucks, making it a social destination as well as a distillery visit. The Franklin County farm is also pet-friendly.
• Limited Distribution: Whiskey Thief's spirits are primarily sold only at their two physical locations, making a visit the only way to acquire many of their specific single-barrel products.
• Ownership: The company is owned by Walter Zausch, a former Apple and Microsoft manager, who acquired the distillery (formerly known as Three Boys Farm Distillery) in 2021 and rebranded it with its original name.

Offerings and Products

The focus is on single-barrel products, ensuring each bottle is unique with a distinct flavor profile that changes with aging and environmental factors.

• Bourbon and Rye Whiskies: The primary spirits offered are single-barrel bourbons and rye whiskies.
• Other Spirits: They also offer moonshines and Prototype Gins at their gift shop.
• Private Barrel Selections: The distillery provides a private barrel selection program, allowing customers to hand-select a barrel and design custom labeling for their own unique product.
• Events: Both locations are available for private events like weddings and gatherings, and regularly host public events with live music.

About Ardbeg:

Ardbeg is a Scottish distillery located on the Isle of Islay, founded in 1815 and known for its heavily peated single malt scotch whiskies. The distillery is celebrated for a "peaty paradox"—a complex combination of intense smoky flavor with surprising sweetness and has a passionate global following, including over 160,000 members in the Ardbeg Committee. Ardbeg uses peat smoke to dry its barley, giving its whisky a distinct smoky, full-bodied, and oily character with salty notes.

Whisky production and style

• Peated malt: Ardbeg is known for its heavily peated style, using malt that is dried over a peat fire, which infuses the whisky with smoky flavors.
• "Peaty paradox": The whisky is famous for balancing its smoky peatiness with a delicious sweetness, a phenomenon the brand calls the "peaty paradox".
• Water source: It uses mineral-rich, peaty water from Loch Uigeadail to create its spirit, unlike some other Islay distilleries that use softer water.
• Core expressions: The core range includes popular whiskies like the Ardbeg 10 Year Old, the smoky and sweet Ardbeg Uigeadail, and the intense Corryvreckan.

Community and recognition

• Ardbeg Committee: In 2000, the Ardbeg Committee was founded to safeguard the distillery's legacy, and it has grown to over 160,000 members worldwide.

Johnnie Walker Black Label Sherry Finish

 

Johnnie Walker Black Label Sherry Finish 40%-ABV 1-liter bottle.

About Johnnie Walker:

Johnnie Walker is the world’s best-selling blended Scotch whisky, owned by the company Diageo. The brand was established in 1820 by a Scottish grocer of the same name who began blending whiskies to ensure a consistent, high-quality flavor for his customers. Today, Johnnie Walker is known for its iconic square bottles, slanted labels, and its color-coded range of whiskies.
History
The founder: In 1820, John “Johnnie” Walker used his inheritance to open a grocery shop in Kilmarnock, Scotland. Here, he began blending whiskies to offer a product that was more consistent than the single malts available at the time.
Expansion: After John’s death in 1857, his son Alexander inherited the company and expanded the business globally. He took advantage of the railway to ship his whisky to the world and introduced the brand’s distinctive square bottle to reduce breakage during transport.
Iconic branding: In 1908, John’s grandsons rebranded the whiskies by color and introduced the famous “Striding Man” logo, drawn by cartoonist Tom Browne. By 1920, Johnnie Walker was available in over 120 countries.
Who is Johnnie Walker? Discover his story and where our whisky history begins. It all started in 1820 when a determined young man named John opened his grocery shop in Kilmarnock – a thriving town in Scotland – after the death of his father. Despite a difficult start, John had a spark in him that would ignite his success.
JOHN HAD A NATURAL GIFT FOR BUSINESS. HE ALSO HAD A GENIUS FOR WHISKY.
Within the year, the family farm had been sold and the money used to set John Walker up with his own grocer’s shop in the thriving local town of Kilmarnock. It was a smart move. In those days, most grocers stocked a line of single malts, but they were never consistent. This wasn’t good enough for John. So, he started blending them together to create a whisky that tasted just as good every time.
It proved an extremely popular addition to the inventory.
When John passed away in 1857, after a full and prosperous life, he left his son, Alexander, with a very healthy business. These were fast-moving times. Britain was the pulsating heart of an Industrial Revolution that was set to change absolutely everything. In Kilmarnock, the railway had arrived, carrying goods to great ships travelling to the four corners of the world. Like his father, Alexander knew a good opportunity when he saw one.
A timeline of our history
1867
Alexander introduced the iconic slanted label and square bottle to be distinctive and stand out of the
1908
When Tom Browne created the Striding Man, Alexander’s sons, Alexander II and George, wanted a symbol for the energetic brand they’d created. A leading illustrator, Tom Browne, sketched the Striding Man figure for them. They renamed their whiskies after the label colors and Johnnie Walker Red Label and Black Label were born.
1920
Johnnie Walker whisky is available in 120 countries and becomes part of global culture. It’s immortalized by songwriters and filmmakers, idolized by socialites and movie stars, enjoyed by statesmen. In 1934, John Walker & Sons was granted a Royal Warrant by King George V.
20th Century
The pioneering Johnnie Walker Red Label and iconic Johnnie Walker Black Label are joined by the exquisitely crafted Johnnie Walker Blue Label. The range continues to grow with the addition of Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve.
TODAY
Johnnie Walker is the biggest Scotch Whisky brand in the world. Its slogan is adopted and embraced everywhere, as a rallying cry for progress, encouragement in adversity and an expression of optimism. It continues to make whiskies that push boundaries.

New Alchemy Distilling Oliver’s Own Kentucky Straight Bourbon

New Alchemy Distilling Oliver’s Own Kentucky Straight Bourbon 45%-ABV, 750ml bottles.

About New Alchemy Distilling :

At New Alchemy Distilling, we are passionate about bringing new perspectives to classic spirits. Distiller-owned and operated, we are personally involved in every step from recipe development to distillation and bottling. Our distillery began as an idea in a research laboratory, where our two founders first met, and that idea has since evolved into a small business, engaging additional members of our families. We combine both artistic and highly technical skillsets to develop new approaches to traditional spirits. Our vodka and gin use neutral spirit distilled in-house from local wine, resulting in subtle flavors distinct from those found in grain-based products. Our vodka undergoes a proprietary technique to further purify the spirit until it is bright and crisp. The botanicals in our gins are hand sorted, weighed, and ground, then precisely extracted by vapor-path distillation using a unique still we designed and built.

We believe that everything we make is an expression of ourselves; we each taste every new batch, no matter how small, in order to make sure that everything we bottle is something we can be proud of. From all of us at the New Alchemy Distilling family, we invite you to Drink Something New®.

Smoky Valley Distillery Popcorn Sutton Master Blend Bourbon Whiskey

Smoky Valley Distillery Popcorn Sutton Master Blend Bourbon Whiskey 50%-ABV, 750ml bottles.

About Smoky Valley Distillery:

Smoky Valley Distillery was established by Stan and Michele Von Strohe. The husband and wife duo enjoyed highly successful professional careers before embarking on their encore career as distillers.

So, they moved to their favorite all-American small town – Marquette, Kansas – a place where they have family ties, many friends and fond memories. Stan, as a young boy, even worked on local farms during the summers.

They purchased the COOP, a historic old building in the heart of downtown, and immediately began remodeling the building to become a state-of-the-art distillery. In January of 2020, the Von Strohes and their son Shane, opened Smoky Valley Distillery and began operations.

About Obbink Distillery:

Tucked away in the quiet town of St. Joseph, Minnesota, Obbink Distilling is working on a classified mission to launch its space-aged spirits into orbit. Inside the Testing Facility is where you’ll find the whiskey pioneer and former Mechanical Satellite Engineer for the Earth and Space Sciences Division, Gregg Obbink, testing his latest batch. With years of extensive satellite testing experience, working with NASA, and even sending the Curiosity Rover to Mars, Obbink is no stranger to pushing the boundaries and reimagining what’s possible.

After retiring in 2008, he brought his passion for science and spirits together to reimagine the way whiskey has been made for thousands of years. And he didn’t waste any time tinkering and experimenting with accelerating time itself — leading him to develop his proprietary method for speeding up the aging process from years to just days. The end result? Space-aged spirits fueled by curiosity for down-to-earth people with a rich taste that’s years beyond its age. And you can get a taste of the Obbink Distilling experience when you visit the Testing Facility located in St. Joseph, Minnesota.
