An on-site apothecary allows for innovative experimental batches beyond the core offerings. The rustic 6,000 square foot facility boasts an inviting tasting room where visitors can witness the distillation process firsthand while sampling the southern-inspired spirits.

Jimmy Red corn is the most remarkable corn we've ever worked with. Nutty, sweet, and mineralic with an extremely high oil content, the fermented mash produces a 3" thick oil cap. We distill on the grain, so all of that oil is blended back into the mash and provides an unusually creamy mouthfeel in the distillate. The Jimmy Red whiskey is aged for a minimum of 2 years, creating a straight bourbon unlike any other we've ever experienced.
