Lewis & Clark Whiskey

About Lewis & Clark

Lewis & Clark Distillery is based in Montana and named after explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. For newcomers, it's an approachable, rounded, spicy American whiskey; for the curious collector, one of the lesser-known names from the Pacific Northwest's growing but still niche whiskey scene, where local ingredients and independent distilleries are on the rise.

History & Background

The distillery is based in Montana, a state with a short but fast-growing whiskey tradition compared to America's classic whiskey states. Its name honors Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, whose famous expedition crossed this land in the early 1800s in search of a route to the Pacific. Like the explorers, the distillery draws on local resources, building its production around ingredients from the surrounding Northwest. It is part of a new wave of American craft distilleries that emerged outside the classic whiskey states in the 2000s and 2010s.

Production & Style
