Bozeman Spirits
At Bozeman Spirits, you really can taste the Rockies—probably because all of their offerings are made from pure Rocky Mountain water. Each concoction (vodka, rum, whiskey, and gin) is distilled and bottled onsite, too, so your taste buds can bond with that local goodness. And with ingredients sourced from nearby flavoring every bottle, you can really bring home a piece of Montana when you buy a bottle.

Vodka, rum, bourbon, gin, and apple pie all make an appearance at Wildrye, and they’re all made with Montana in mind. The award-winning Boss Tweed Old Tom Gin makes a quality place to start your tasting tour of the facility, but you also can’t go wrong with one of their signature cocktails, like a Passionfruit Hurricane (Dark Rum, Silver Rum, passion fruit puree, simple syrup, lime juice, and a dash of grenadine or cherry juice) or a Wild Mule (Wildrye Premium Vodka, half a squeezed lime, and Cock & Bull ginger beer). The industrial vibe comes complete with plenty of Montana charm, so it makes it easy to kick back and sip away.
