MGP Ingredients tapped Breakthru Beverage to be the brands’ exclusive distributor.
“We are proud of our Midwest roots, and it is particularly exciting to partner with the team at Breakthru to build Till Vodka and George Remus Bourbon in Illinois,” says Andrew Mansinne, VP-Brands, MGP Ingredients. “Illinois ranks as one of the most active beverage markets in the country. We feel naturally at home here and look forward to actively participating in this dynamic craft spirits and cocktail scene.”
The distribution partnership follows MGP’s market expansion plans for Till American Wheat Vodka and George Remus Bourbon. Both brands are crafted by the expert distillers at MGP. Till is produced from locally grown Kansas wheat, distilled for refinement through a proprietary process by the team in Atchison, Kans. George Remus Straight Bourbon Whiskey and Remus Repeal Reserve Straight Bourbon Whiskey are crafted from MGP’s aged bourbon reserves, located in its 170-year old Lawrenceburg, Indiana, distillery, one of the oldest and most historic spirits facilities in the country.
