The unmatched flavor of Montana’s famous Flathead Lake sweet cherries got its start
more than 120 years ago. Many of the early cherry tree varieties planted here, such as
the Lambert, were devastated in the “big Freeze” of 1989. Since then, Flathead Lake
orchards have begun experimenting with newer cherry varieties that are more resistant
to Montana’s unpredictable weather. Hence, Lambert cherries have become known as
a “heritage” variety. As part of Wildrye Distilling’s Montana Heritage Spirit Collection, we
have created a Special Reserve spirit we call EichenKirsch (German for: Oaken
Cherry). We ferment Lambert cherries, fresh from Flathead Lake, with Montana beet
sugar. This ferment is then distilled on our custom-built pot stills and rested for at least
4 years in oak. The resulting spirit presents the aroma of cherry followed by the
complexity of palate found in finely matured whiskies and brandies. Each annual
release is limited and unique.
Aged at least 4 years
Released annually in November
Bottled at 60% alc/vol (120 proof)

Montana is full of natural beauty. Many native plants adorn the landscape (including Great Basin Wildrye). These trees and plants help create Montana’s unique look, feel and for those in the know, also its unique taste. At Wildrye Distilling, our philosophy is to let Montana’s unique flora define the flavor and aroma of our spirits.

Wildrye Distilling specializes in the production of unique distilled spirits prepared, whenever possible, from Montana-grown ingredients. Rather than importing raw materials from out-of-state to try and imitate established liquor styles, we use local ingredients to create spirits that have their own unique Montana style and taste.

This philosophy not only allows us to produce spirit styles that are unique to Montana, it reduces our carbon footprint while helping to support local agriculture, and the Montana economy. Although we don’t produce traditional distilled spirits, we do respect time-honored, production methods. All of our products are made from healthy ingredients and are chemical and preservative free. Wildrye Distilling products are hand-made and bottled in Bozeman, we even grow, and pick our own sweetcorn for our Five Drops Bourbon Whiskey on our family farm in Corvallis Montana.
