About Journeyman Kissing Cousins Whiskey
Kissing Cousins Whiskey starts with Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon that’s distilled from a mash bill of 70% organic corn, 25% organic wheat, and 5% organic rye through a 5000-liter, copper pot still imported from Germany. The corn and rye come from a farmer in Illinois, and the wheat from a local farmer in Michigan. Following distillation, the bourbon ages in newly charred American oak casks for 15 months. Using multiple size barrels, each distillation is tailored to the barrel and bottled once it has reached the desired taste profile. Specific casks of Featherbone are chosen for additional finishing in wine casks from local wineries. The current batch was finished in Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir barrels from Dablon Winery for 3 months. “Kissing Cousins” refers to the distillery collaborating with a nearby winery.

About Journeyman
The Featherbone Factory — built by E.K. Warren in the 19th century to manufacture women’s corsets — sits on the banks of Lake Michigan just across the Indiana border in Three Oaks, Michigan. As the factory changed hands in the twentieth century, it became a production site for everything from buggy whips to pickles. Today, it’s home to Journeyman Distillery and Bill Welter, Journeyman’s master distiller.
Welter, who was formerly a banker in Indiana, began his journey when his family business was sold in 2006. He moved to Scotland, where he began to learn the art of craft distillation from Greg Ramsay (master distiller at Nant Distillery) and Bill Lark (master distiller at Lark Distillery). After returning to the United States, Welter spent time producing and resting whiskey using a prominent organic & kosher distiller’s facility in Chicago before opening the doors of his own distillery in Three Oaks with the intention to offer grain-to-glass spirits from day one/drop one.
About American Whiskey
There are two main representatives of the American whiskey family, bourbon, and rye, but some other spirits don’t fall into those two strictly regulated categories.
There’s equally strictly regulated American single malt, made from 100% malted barley, Tennessee whiskey, essentially bourbon filtered through maple charcoal and aged in new charred oak barrels.
And then there’s moonshine, a high proof (150- 170 proof) distilled spirit mainly made out of corn which gained popularity during the prohibition.
Check out our impressive selection of American single malts, or find your new favorite in our rich whisk(e)y selection, and get familiarized with what the world has to offer.
