Home to wild trout, gonzo writers, and masterfully distilled spirits as complex and surprising as the place they were born. Pull up a chair, take a slow, joyful sip of one of our award-winning spirits, and get to know your neighbor up the creek.

For true rye connoisseurs, the distillery is proud to offer 'William H. Macy Reserve Straight Rye Whiskey' made from barrels personally selected by William H. Macy, our Woody Creek neighbor and Spokesdude. This limited edition, 10-year-old, bottled-in-bond expression was distilled from an 80% rye/20% malted barley mash bill in Spring 2013.

Straight Bourbon

This addition to the Woody Creek Family of spirits has been years in the making. Our much anticipated Colorado Bourbon, aged a minimum of four years in deeply charred new American oak, has just enough spice to get your attention, with hints of cinnamon, caramel, and honey in the background. Settle in to its complex personality and satisfyingly long finish, and you'll agree that it was certainly worth the wait.

Colorado Gin

Old-world gin meets new-world botanicals. Our Roaring Fork Gin is crafted from our pure potato spirit, redistilled with local juniper berries handpicked by our own master distiller, along with a thoughtful blend of 12 other botanicals. This modern expression of a measured spirit will both surprise and delight the pickiest of gin drinkers from the Rocky Mountains to London.

Mary's Select Gin

This newest addition to our world-class lineup is our Mary's Select Gin. This Gin was inspired by our CEO and is infused with butterfly pea blossom with hints of rhubarb, elderflower and yuzu. This sexy spirit is floral, fruity and can brighten any cocktail!

Rye Whiskey

We've poured ourselves into bringing you this straight raw whiskey of uncommon complexity and "damn that's smooth" taste. Each bottle of our 100% Colorado Rye is crafted in custom CARL stills using locally grown rye from trusted Colorado farms, then gracefully aged a minimum of four years in new American oak. Indeed, this is how you turn rye into gold.

Vodka

It began as an obsession to create the world's best vodka from the ground up - or in this case, just below it. Each surprisingly complex sip of our premium potato vodka was born of locally harvested Rio Grande potatoes, mashed fresh and distilled only once to bring you a rare vodka with a character all its own. Cranberry juice is entirely optional.

William H. Macy Reserve

For true rye connoisseurs, the distillery is proud to offer 'William H. Macy Reserve Straight Rye Whiskey' made from barrels personally selected by William H. Macy, our Woody Creek neighbor and Spokesdude. This limited edition, 10-year-old, bottled-in-bond expression was distilled from an 80% rye/20% malted barley mash bill in Spring 2013. On the nose, clove and cinnamon beckon, along with dried yellow raisins and a hint of burnt orange. As the luxurious spirit envelops the palate, its velvety texture is replete with nutty notes and fragrant autumnal baking spices. Macy Reserve's long and luxurious finish is clean and dry, with an echo of spiced fruit and a touch of smoke.

Our Story

When we founded Woody Creek Distillers, our mission was simple: To pour everything we are into everything we make. We set out to make nothing but the finest craft spirits, each with a unique taste and character that was true to the origins of that spirit. It’s a standard we hold ourselves to every day. We never use neutral grain spirits or blend with base spirits from other distillers. We grow and harvest many of our own ingredients, like the Rio Grande potatoes for our premium vodka. We only source our grains from trusted Colorado farms, like the rye in our 100% rye mash whiskey. For the finishing touch, we distill every spirit we make in our own custom CARL stills – a shining copper example of engineering and art that turns the Earth’s freshest ingredients into the world’s most treasured spirits. This is without a doubt the perfect place to raise a drink.
