Thoughtful casks. A curious spirit.
American spirits, our own way.
The whole collection
Whiskey is where most of our story lives. Gin is part of it, too. Get to know every bottle, then follow your own path.
The new American school of distilling
Start with good ingredients. Pay attention to the barrel. Keep asking what comes next.
That curiosity connects our four-grain bourbon, fully malted rye, layered solera and barrel-aged gin. Different starting points. The same care.
Soft wheat sweetness. Rye spice on the finish. Four Grain brings both to a 100-proof bourbon.
American oak, French oak, Oloroso and peated Islay casks give each whiskey its own direction.
Gin meets pecan-smoked grapefruit, time in oak, and cold-smoked maple and agave. Meet Old Tom.

A different side of Oppidan
Our curiosity extends beyond whiskey. Grapefruit, elderflower, hibiscus and chamomile meet ginger, cardamom and cinnamon in American Botanical Gin.
Discover the gin
Barrel Reserve Old Tom Gin
