COMMITMENT
TO THE
TRADITION

We have a pioneering spirit here at Wilderness Trail Distillery, just like the settlers who followed the path Daniel Boone blazed into Central Kentucky. In keeping with our location in the birthplace of Kentucky, we like blending old traditions with the science of making Bourbon and other fine spirits.
After years of working with distilleries around the world to provide advice and fermentation products, we launched our premium craft distillery in 2012 with a focus on making the highest quality Bourbon, Rye Whiskey and Vodka. Our founders Shane Baker and Pat Heist are fermentation experts with more than 20 years of experience in the production of alcohol and some of the best brands on the market today. Our specialty is making unique spirits from locally-grown grains to ensure quality, and adding a healthy dose of science in the process. Come see what we mean by visiting Wilderness Trail Distillery.

We Love Our Spirits

We’re happy that people are enjoying our Small Batch, Bottled in Bond, Kentucky Straight Bourbon with a wheated mashbill, high-rye mashbill or rye whiskey. Blüe Heron Vodka also continues to be a big hit. We want to share more details about our releases, distribution and events. We also want to hear from people who enjoy Wilderness Trail. So, please share your adventures. Please tag us with #whattrailareyouon. Sharing news is part of being a Family.
