An American Independent Bottler
Lost Lantern is an award-winning independent bottler of American whiskey inspired by the Scottish tradition.
We find unique and exciting whiskies from every corner of the United States. And we tell the stories of these distilleries and why whiskey lovers should know about what they’re doing.
The best whiskey reflects where it’s made, how it’s made, what it’s made from, and who made it. Lost Lantern shines a light on those whiskies and the independent spirits who make them.
Hand selected
We search for and find the brightest lights in American distilling from all across the United States. Our carefully chosen casks will help you discover them too.
Expertly blended
Our blends are meticulously created from whiskies sourced from multiple distilleries, intended to reveal the breadth of what American whiskey can be.
One of a kind
Everything we release is limited, often to a single cask. Our whiskies are snapshots of moments in time. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
