Production Completed
in Hermann, Missouri
Our staple mashbill is distilled offsite in Lawrenceburg, Indiana to our specifications. Barrels age until they’re at least five years old then are rotated down to our production room here in Hermann. The toughest day is when they arrive and we conduct a team tasting to select our single barrels, start matching trios for our small batch or reserving barrels for our experimental or special releases.
Depending on the line, our whiskey either goes straight from barrel to bottle or is finished, blended, or proofed to meet our quality standards. We retrieve natural Missouri limestone filtered spring water from our friends in Stover, Missouri to proof our spirits. Production is completed in our ______ square foot production room fondly dubbed “The Carriage House”.
What Goes Into Quality Craft Whiskey?
Fine whiskey starts with a solid mashbill. The right yeast ferments the finest grains. Limestone filtered water rounds out the pre-distillate. Then its up to the distillation process to convert mash into alcohol. Coming off the still between ____ and ____ the moonshine goes into new Missouri oak barrels with a number 4 char. Our barrels then age in rickhouses for a minimum of five years. As we expand production and our spirit lines we rotate barrels down for production to be completed at our distillery here in the heart of the historic district.
