7 Year Celebration

Just over seven years ago, we distilled our first batches of Hard Truth Sweet Mash Whiskey. This year, we’re celebrating those legendary moments with the release of our first 7-year whiskeys.
Join us this Saturday, March 7, for 7-year-whiskey festivities featuring $7 tasting flights of the new releases, $7 Sweet Mash distillery tours, live music, barrel signings, interactive Meet the Maker experiences, and more.
Take part in the Passport Experience, and earn stamps by completing activities such as tastings, cocktails, tours, mixology moments, and behind-the-scenes experiences. Collect seven stamps to receive exclusive rewards.
A limited VIP experience before the public event is also available for purchase, and it includes a welcome cocktail in the Owner’s Lounge,  guided tasting with Master Distiller Bryan Smith, and an exclusive keepsake.
Lucky number seven never tasted so good.
