The Rock Town Distillery was founded in 2010 by Phil Brandon. Having just lost his job, the 5th generation Arkansas native decided to stay in his native state and turned an old 1950’s warehouse into a working whisky distillery. His taste for whisky and an enterprising passion led him to research the new craft distillery movement of the era. Arkansas did not have a legal distillery since prohibition so he decided to open a truly, legal craft distillery in the middle of Little Rock, Arkansas.

The newly founded distillery was created with one mission in mind, to produce products from locally sourced materials. At Rock Town Distillery, there is an immense passion for producing “handcrafted” whiskies. All the whiskies are meticulously crafted in small batches from grain to glass. Arkansas is known as “the Natural State” so Phil didn’t have to look far to find the natural grains and materials to produce high-quality whiskies and spirits.
