Distillery: Blue Ridge Distillery

Tim Ferris is the founder of Blue Ridge Distilling Co. and the man behind Defiant American Single Malt Whisky. Inspired by his limitless adventures in the ocean as a salvage diver, he set out to do the same on land as a distiller. This Whiskey is distilled from 100% malted “two-row premium brewer’s barley” and aged for up to 6 months in stainless tanks using toasted, American oak spirals instead of oak barrels (which means it is technically not an American single malt). It’s bottled at 41% ABV.

Distillery Information

Blue Ridge Distilling Co. is founded on the quest for true quality. It has been said that the devil is in the details, and there is a vast amount of detail in distilling. It is our attention to these details at every nuance of the production process that results in a truly exquisite single malt. Nestled into the Blue Ridge Mountains, Blue Ridge Distilling Co. began on a forgotten corner of the family farm. You might say after a visit that we are out in the middle of nowhere. We would agree, and thats the way we like it. Water is the largest ingredient of whisky. Ours is drawn from deep under the distillery. Our water is so pure and perfect for whisky making we do nothing to it whatsoever.
