Who We Are
Curiosity can lead you to some incredible places. It’s what called us to Kentucky in 2016 to build a distillery like no other. And we haven’t stopped innovating since. From our glass rickhouses, to our Napa Valley style tour, we’re pushing the boundaries of bourbon like no one has before. Not because we’re particularly fond of bending the rules, but rather to re-imagine what the category could be. One that’s more innovative, transparent and collaborative. Because if you want to create an entirely new bourbon experience, you can never stop exploring. Never stop discovering. Never stand still.

Our Double Gold award-winning Discovery celebrates the art of blending fine whiskies from all over the world. The Collaborative Series celebrates the art of finishing, working with respected producers of beer, wines, and spirits by aging fine whiskey in their barrels to create truly unique products – recognized three years in a row by Whiskey Advocate. And the 2023 IWSC top-ranked Origin Series is our 100% estate-distilled bourbon and rye, adding modern twists to traditional recipes.
