If there's a "Story in Every Bottle" of Traverse City Whiskey, and storytelling is an art, then consider us Ernest Hemingway and our whiskey is Three Stories and Ten Poems - seriously, you should try it.Here at the Traverse City Whiskey Co., we've worked hard to reconstruct the recipe that's been lingering in one of our family heirlooms for three generations. In February 2015 we finished construction on our 2,400 sq. ft. distillery and tasting room located in downtown Traverse City (201 E Fourteenth Street - photos coming soon) where we will start producing the best whiskey available using our family's formula and the techniques derived directly from my great-grandfather's patents.To jump-start the production process, we partnered with a master distiller here in the Midwest who worked with us to construct our current taste profile. Behind the scenes we've been breaking ground on our family farm and have begun planting the necessary corn, barley and rye to properly reconstruct this whiskey masterpiece. Our new American oak barrels are aged on-site until they've matured for at least four years, at which point we hand bottle and label every batch individually.
