About Our Agave Spirits

Dread River’s agave lineup showcases both clarity and complexity. Our Blue Agave Spirit is distilled from 100% blue agave in Birmingham, offering a smooth, clean profile with crisp mineral notes – an unaged blanco-style expression perfect for cocktails. It also earned a Silver Medal at the 2023 Finger Lakes International Wine & Spirits Competition.

Taking bold innovation further, the Double Barrel Aged Agave Batch 2 “Mistaken” is aged over 18 months in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks, delivering sweet-and-spicy layers of cream soda, butterscotch, white pepper, and molasses at 113 proof. While Batch2 is the current release, its predecessor (Batch1) earned a Silver Medal at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
