Founded in 2021, Whiskey House is already transforming the contract whiskey market.
How do we know?
Our senior team founded and built the Bardstown Bourbon Company, which was the first distillery in Kentucky to offer customized, contract distillation.
Now, we’re doing it again. This time differently. With no brands of our own and a campus closed to the public, Whiskey House is focused on providing the highest quality custom whiskey production, innovative liquid design, exceptional customer service, and the most competitive pricing for our exclusive branded customers.
