Montgomery Distillery Montana Straight Bourbon
Mountain Calm
Lost Lantern hand-selected this cask from Montgomery Distillery in Missoula, Montana. Closely tied to the Montgomery family’s 4th-generation farm in central Montana, from which it gets much of its grain, the distillery creates true grain-to-glass Montana spirits, many with an old world twist.
This wheated straight bourbon whiskey, our first from Montgomery and from Montana, was made from 70% corn, 20% wheat, and 10% malted barley. Aged for 4 years in a 53-gallon barrel, it has warm, soft cinnamon and clove notes on the nose. The palate is soft and welcoming yet deep, with warm vanilla and milk chocolate notes. Complex, balanced, and very approachable.
Most whiskies we’ve done from high-elevation environments have been real barnstormers: high proof and intense. Yet they can also be balanced, as in this case, where a much lower proof at initial barreling led to a lower cask strength.

About Montgomery Distillery
Montgomery Distillery in Missoula, Montana, is closely tied to the Montgomery family’s 4th-generation farm in central Montana, from which it gets much of its grain. As a result, the distillery creates true grain-to-glass Montana spirits, many with an old world twist. The farm sits on one of the largest spring creeks in Montana, an ambling trout stream which also irrigates the Montgomery family’s wheat and rye. They share their 200 acres with beaver, black bear, muskrats, white tailed deer, and the occasional moose.
