Templeton Distillery

Templeton Distillery Small town. Big roots. Born in Templeton, Iowa - where rye runs deep and stories run deeper. Must be 21+ to enjoy responsibly. Templeton, Iowa. Population: 352.

But our spirit reaches far beyond the city limits. What started as a whisper during Prohibition became a legacy built on grit, community, and darn good rye. The town’s grown a little, the roads are paved -but the soul? Still the same. Every bottle tells a story of where we’re from, and where we’re headed. Please enjoy responsibly.

Out amongst the rolling hills, miles of fertile farmland, and swaying corn stalks of rural Iowa, there’s a little town of 352. Templeton, Iowa has been known for making whiskey since way back in the Prohibition days.

Take a look around.

Slow summer nights, music drifting in from the front porch, s’mores around the campfire, whiskey in the glass. That’ll do. 🪵🥃

Turns out the best tasting panel lives in a town of 350(ish).

We invited Templeton residents to the distillery to sample several exclusive barrels and vote for their favorite.

50 neighbors showed up, the best barrel was chosen, and the rest is whiskey history. 🥃

Made from Iowa corn, distilled and aged at our Iowa distillery. Our first-ever Single Barrel Bourbon never strayed far from home. Coming soon.
