Grandaddy used to make a little lightning every now and then and mix it with apple juice and cinnamon to make it sippable. Now you too can have Grandaddy’s Apple Pie Arkansas Lightning. Smooth and delicious. Handcrafted from our own Arkansas Lightning and a blend of all natural apple juice, cinnamon and other spices. 40 proof.

Whiskey distilled from Arkansas Soft Red Winter Wheat – aged in ex-Bourbon casks – with a nice smokey taste from real Hickory. We took American whiskey distilling techniques and melded it with Scotch whiskey aging techniques to make something pretty special, Arkansas Hickory Smoked Whiskey. We steeped the wheat in water and then slowly dried the wheat by smoking it in our own hickory smokers. It was smoky but definitely worth it!

ARKANSAS LIGHTNING is pot distilled from only the finest Arkansas Corn and Wheat by hand. Bottled at 125 proof, the same as if it went into a barrel to make bourbon whiskey.

That’s right folks, Bourbon does not have to come from Kentucky. It can be made anywhere in the good ole US of A and we’ve bottled Arkansas’ first Bourbon. Arkansas Young Bourbon Whiskey is just that, a young bourbon whiskey. Distilled by hand from Arkansas Corn and Arkansas Soft Red Winter wheat, it was aged in 5 and 10 gallon new charred white oak barrels from Gibbs Brothers Cooperage in Hot Springs, Arkansas. This is a “wheated” bourbon. No rye grain was used in the mashbill. We wanted to use locally sourced grains and rye is not grown in Arkansas. Bottled at 92 proof, this is a premium handcrafted spirit.

Our gin is handmade using a copper potstill, one small batch at a time. What makes our gin special is the mix of botanicals we use and the technique we use to infuse the flavors in the spirit. Our botanicals are all natural and carefully selected, measured and vapor infused into the spirit during distillation. Vapor infusion is a method by which the botanicals are placed in a perforated basket and spirit vapors are passed through the basket during distillation. The vapor infusion process gives our gin an amazingly fresh aroma and a wonderful taste, without the juniper overpowering the other botanicals.

Handmade from Arkansas soft red winter wheat. We source our wheat from Terry Dabb’s farm in Stuttgart, Arkansas. We mill the wheat ourselves, then we cook, ferment and distill it 4 times in our copper pot still, all by hand. We then carefully carbon filter and bottled by hand. We then sign and number each bottle by hand to show the care that went into each and every bottle.

Riverboat Rum is slowly distilled from premium dark brown sugar in our copper potstill. Aged in used whiskey casks and then filtered to a clear beautiful spirit. Riverboat Rum is full of character, exceptional smooth, light bodied spirit. On the nose it has delicate notes of vanilla and brown sugar, on the palate it is rounded with vanilla and spice.
