Laws Whiskey House

A good whiskey, like a good narrative, should be shared. Our whiskey is our story at Laws Whiskey House. But what is a whiskey house, exactly? To us, it's a shrine to whiskey, a kind of sanctuary where you can come and explore your passion for the spirit. Laws Whiskey House is a distillery, no doubt, but it's also a place where we can educate and share everything we know and love about whiskey. Our dedication to education is so central to our mission that the term "distillery" doesn't do it justice. That's our tale. And one sip will convince you that there isn't a speck of fiction in it.
