Historie

Baggrund

Billy the Kid, Jesse James, Butch Cassidy, Josie Wales – these are all famous outlaws who probably enjoyed good whiskey. Now we want to add two more to that list of famous lawbreakers – Sumit Vohra and Chris Mielke. Over a dram of small-batch whiskey in their favorite saloon they wondered how a craft brewery could expand into the wild west of the spirits market. They concluded that you should be bold, go against the current, and use whatever you have at hand to bring unique liquor into people's hands to enjoy. First and foremost – you should be an outlaw. That is what Lonerider Spirits does – we make spirits of outlaws for outlaws.

Identitet og mission

The brand is built around an unbridled, individual approach to spirits and an outlaw brand that comes together in the craft of small-batch, distinctive flavor experiences.

Produktion

Fremstillingsfilosofi

Our first spirit is a high-rye bourbon, with its kick mellowed by sherry cask aging, but still a bourbon through and through — like a thoroughbred stallion.

Lagring og stil

The sherry cask finish is used to temper the kick in a robust bourbon and give depth to the finish.
