Made from the hard red winter wheat harvested from Washington Island, Wisconsin.

Zeppelin Bend is a double distilled straight-malt whiskey. Plenty of vanilla and clove, with a classic American-oak finish.

Ole George Whiskey is distilled from a 100% rye mash bill and is bottled at 93 proof. Here at Grand Traverse Distillery our goal was to distill a traditional rye whiskey. Prior to prohibition Americans drank rye whiskey. Rye has a unique character that no other grain can provide in that the rye imparts a spicy flavor. Our Ole George Whiskey is bottled straight from the barrel. We do not chill filter our whiskey. Chill filtering can remove flavor from the whiskey which is why we will not chill filter. Our goal with Ole George Whiskey is to let the unique flavor of the rye come through.
