Brush Creek Distillery, a small-batch distiller set in the one-of-a-kind epicurean center of world-renowned Brush Creek Ranch, launched its first line of Brush Creek spirits in the Wyoming market.
The spirits are distilled and crafted on-site, embracing local and natural resources and using the finest ingredients. The first batches of Brush Creek Straight Bourbon, Brush Creek Straight Rye, Brush Creek Vodka and Brush Creek Gin can be found in liquor stores across Saratoga, Rawlins, Laramie, Cheyenne, Casper, Sheridan and surrounding counties.
“We are thrilled to showcase the high-quality spirits crafted right here in our backyard,” said Andrew Wason, Managing Director of Brush Creek Distillery. “Our craft distilling and blending processes provide for singular small batch bourbon, rye, gin, and vodka, allowing us to closely monitor every batch, barrel and bottle, and do things that larger distilleries cannot do.”
Wason helped launch Brush Creek Distillery in 2019, fulfilling the vision to produce spirits at Brush Creek Ranch. He embraced the challenge after 18 years of experience in wine and spirits distribution at Republic National Distributing Corp. where he climbed the executive ranks to hold positions in operations, sales, finance and marketing. He also served for numerous years as Chair and Board Member of Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America’s Conference for Leadership Development. Wason is charged with developing and operating Brush Creek Distillery’s craft spirits program and expanding its products in markets across the country, including targeting Colorado and Texas yet this year, followed by Indiana and Kentucky in 2021.
Brush Creek Distillery spirits use certified organic greenhouse botanicals, mountain water, ranch-foraged ingredients and sustainable practices. The four ultra-premium products now available include: Brush Creek Straight Bourbon ($59.99), Brush Creek Straight Rye ($49.99), Brush Creek Vodka ($26.99) and Brush Creek Gin ($28.99).
