About Thumb Butte Distillery

Starting with grains, herbs, and fruits grown by local farmers, the master distillers at Thumb Butte Distillery craft small-batch whiskey, gin, vodka, and dark rum. They teams up with area farm families to create distinct strains of wheat, barley, and rye. The result is a stable of spirits that pay homage to the American West. There's the Rodeo Rye that sets fire to palates with the flavors of vanilla, pepper, and oak. The Western Sage Gin—winner of the 2015 silver metal at the Los Angeles International Spirits Competition—balances the dessert flavor of sage with the aromatic licorice taste of fennel. Folks looking to sample the run of spirits can pop into the distillery's tasting room or get a behind-the-scenes look during tasting tours.
