IOWA DISTILLING COMPANY WINS COVETED AWARDS IN CITYVIEW’S BEST OF DES MOINES POLL!
WE’D LIKE TO THANK ALL OUR DEVOTED FANS. CHEERS!
Without you, we wouldn’t be able to call our distillery “award-winning” when we’re trying to sound fancy. (Which actually isn’t very often, but still.) Just to be clear, we don’t see you solely as fans, we also see you as family. An odd family where no one really looks alike and we barely ever fight. A family that supports each other so hard, we ended up winning awards for “Best Local Distillery” and “Best Whiskey” for the 6th YEAR IN A ROW! Along with winning, "Best Rum" and "Best Local Trivia" for the second year in a row, "Best Bloody Mary" and "Best Bar Overall" Not to mention runner up for “Best Local Bartender” and “Best Vodka.” (Except yeah, we literally did just mention it.)
We’re incredibly stoked to give a tip of the hat to those who helped make us everything we are. Iowans have a way of doing that for each other. When you support local, you support everyone around you. We would say it’s a dream come true, but we worked too hard to compare it to something that happens when your eyes are closed.
Don’t worry, we won’t get a big head. Iowa Distilling Company is forever committed to delivering a top-shelf spirit to all who seek it -- whether you’re sipping at home, at your favorite establishment, or at our very own bar. We won’t stop crafting it ‘just right’ as long as you don’t stop drinking it however you like it best. And if you don’t know how you like it best, just ask Ashley, the aforementioned runner up for “Best Local Bartender.” She knows a thing or two…hundred…about our spirits.
We’ll keep crafting it. You keep enjoying it. And hopefully we’ll win your vote again next year.

TOP-SHELF SPIRITS WITH A DOWN-HOME SPIN.
Cumming, Iowa is Iowa Distilling Company’s dot on the map.
But those people have probably never been here. Or met anyone from here. And they certainly haven’t tasted any of our spirits. Because the moment that happens, the dot becomes a destination. And we couldn’t be prouder to call it home.
Our spirits have a way of making you feel like you’re exactly where you want to be. We are local, we’re from here and we’ve chosen to stay here. We’ve done our homework. We’ve put in the time. We were one of the first in the state to get a native-distilling license. That means our aged spirits are aged right here in Iowa. We’ve researched our craft tirelessly to make sure every bottle we produce is our best product, every time but the real knowledge behind our operation comes from the fact that we are true Iowans. We know the farmers who grow the corn and often times, the people behind the bar serving every last drop.
So, you can put our Prairie Fire, Saints ‘n Sinners, IDC Straight Bourbon, Zone Vodka, Steel Drum Rum, and Rocket Fuel on your top shelf, if that’s your style. But regardless of where you keep the bottle, welcome to the family.
PRAIRIE FIRE NOW AVAILABLE IN 1-LITER
Voted Best Whiskey by CityView for the 5th year in a row! Is now available in a 1-liter option.
Prairie Fire Cinnamon Whiskey is Iowa Distilling Company's flagship spirit already available in 750 ml and 50 ml options. Heard the demand for Prairie Fire to also be available in a 1-liter option.
Prairie Fire is a handcrafted award-winning spirit that Iowans can be proud to have on their bar at home or when sharing a cocktail with friends. We’ve found a way to create an intense spirit that makes other cinnamon whiskeys seem like child’s play. Think cinnamon and, well, fire. Not overly sugary, and never syrup-y. It’s for those who
face danger and say, “yes, please.”
Iowa's Cinnamon Whiskey!

GOOD BOURBON DOESN'T LAST LONG
Iowa Distilling Company was faced with a choice as 2018 approached, our dot on the map has turned into a destination. With the growing popularity of Iowa Distilling Company we have seen our spirits continue to find their way into more homes throughout the Iowa.
2017 was a great year for our award-winning bourbon and people noticed. As one of the top 20 Iowa produced spirits products, our inventory flew off the shelf as people discovered how good the bourbon coming out of Cumming is. Not willing to compromise the quality and sticking to our roots, we wanted to let you know that we are limiting the supply of our Bourbon as our barrels come to age. We are still going to be releasing our high quality bourbon however it will be a limited release. Don't stop looking for it and keep asking your local Spirit shop to carry it. They can still get it as we will be delivering on a monthly basis, they might need to check regularly to see when it comes back in stock. Also, as you search for this Top Shelf Spirit with a Down Home Spin, let your fellow Iowa Distilling Bourbon fans know where you find it by posting it on our facebook page. Don't forget to try our other spirts too, we make something for everyone. Remember, this is Your Spirit, Your Home #iowadistillingcompany.
Cheers,
Iowa Distilling Company
