Traverse City Whiskey

Michigan, USA · 2012'den beri

Traverse City Whiskey Co. was founded in 2012 in Traverse City, a lakeside town nestled in the northern reaches of Michigan's lower peninsula. The region is celebrated for its pristine freshwater lakes, fertile agricultural land, and abundant cherry orchards — a natural heritage that quietly informs the distillery's character. The company built its reputation on locally sourced grains and a hands-on approach to small-batch production, releasing expressions that include Bourbon, rye whiskey, and limited seasonal offerings. Among its most distinctive releases is the American Cherry Edition, which incorporates Michigan's legendary tart cherries into the aging process, imparting a gentle fruitiness to the spirit. The whiskeys tend toward approachable sweetness with layered grain notes and a smooth, mid-weight body. As part of the American craft whiskey renaissance, Traverse City Whiskey Co. represents a regional voice from the Great Lakes, demonstrating that world-class spirits can emerge from unexpected corners of the American Midwest.
