"...if you can get both, I'd recommend it." Loads of love here for both our traditional Sloe Gin and elegant Barrel Reserve Sloe Gin!

If you want to experience a delicious liqueur that works both in cocktails and on its own, consider purchasing any of these five sloe gin brands this autumn.

Have you noticed the blossoms have gone and fruit is forming on those plum trees? Well, the sloe berry is a tiny relative of the plum and is about to ripen around here too. Our next batch of Sloe Gin is coming right up!

It’s dry January and we respect that. So it’s a good thing our whiskey doesn’t have any sugar;)!

Can you believe we've been doing this thing for over 12 years now! Case in point: has released a 10-year Rye Whiskey we made so.long.ago.and.is.so.good! In fact the barrel # behind Ashby in this first photo is only two batches older than the one in this bottle.
Lost Lanter put together this post and asked us for THEN & NOW photos.

As we told Adam and Nora, we are so proud to be part of this thriving industry and to contribute to its rich legacy with the Lost Lantern special release of our first-ever 10-year Rye Whiskey. A decade in the making, this rye whiskey reflects our deep commitment to the highest quality malts and grains, the art of our distillations, and a very healthy dose of patience. We’re honored to join some of the finest craft distilleries in the U.S. in this release, and we know you will find our 10-year rye showcases the depth and complexity that only time and dedication can bring. This moment underscores how far the craft whiskey movement has come—and how exciting the future continues to be for small, independent distilleries like ours.

Available starting tomorrow!

When we were given a fairly small handle on our plate frame filter, we found we needed more leverage for a tight filtration. So we put the word out to the team to scour antique and machine shops for a solution. Look at this fantastic red wheel we found AND gives us the leverage needed!
