Dread River was founded in the spirit of adventure, on the notion that life is precious, not fragile. We distill spirits for those inspired by challenge, who value progress over comfort, who seek out boundaries and push beyond them. At Dread River, every bottle is a story, every glass is an opportunity; to listen, to confide, to connect.
Let the current of adventure carry you and when you toast to your accomplishments, reach for us.
Bold. elegant. ready for anything.

sherry finished rye
Made from 90% rye and 10% malted barley, this rye spends the last six months of its aging process in sherry barrels. With hints of tart cherry, the aroma is sweet and full. The spice of the rye is offset by toasted oak and sherry sweetness.

Like Mexican tequilas, but distilled in Birmingham, AL, this "agave spirit" is surprisingly mellow with subtle fruity, earthy, herbal notes on the palate and a strong citrus fragrance.
