Summer calls for something tall and cold. The Heritage Honey Highball puts our American Single Malt over ice with honey, bitters, and soda, letting the stone fruit and almond notes of our high desert terroir shine through. Recipe by , more at mindenmill.com. 🄃

Dozens of stills already on order ahead of this one. That was the wait list for Forsyth, the legendary Scotch still maker with over 200 years of craft behind them. So their team came to walk the estate instead. Halfway through the tour, they asked when the stills were needed. "Two weeks ago." A month later, they shipped, well ahead of schedule, before the building even had a roof on it.

That persistence is the whole point. Minden Mill is one of the only American Single Malt producers using Forsyth stills, hand-hammered and rare on this side of the Atlantic. Pioneering this category takes more than patience. It takes showing up, walking the land, and proving you're serious about doing it right, from the estate up.

Nevada Straight Rye. Four years in barrel, 100% estate grown, distilled, and aged at 4,700 feet in Minden, non-chill filtered at 94 proof. Notes of candied orange peel and spice for a long, lingering finish, a sweetness you don't expect from a rye, shaped by the stress of our high desert terroir. In a Manhattan, that character only deepens.

1916. Frederic DeLongchamps designed it, the Minden Butter Mfg Co. filled it, and Nevada's largest creamery ran out of it for half a century. National Register of Historic Places since 1986. We didn't change the face of it, we just gave it something new to make.

The value of estate production is well understood in wine, but is a newer development in whiskey. Estate distilling is the grain-to-glass process of growing, distilling, and aging all happening in a single place. With no sourcing, it provides ultimate control and oversight. The result is a whiskey with provenance you can taste.

As one of the few single estate distilleries, Minden Mill is leading this movement and setting a new standard in American whiskey.

Water talk gets thrown around a lot in whiskey. Here's ours: Source One, dug in 1906, the original well for the town of Minden and still going. Pure Sierra snowmelt, 150 gallons per minute in the dead of summer, sustainable year after year.

There's a reason we put "100% estate grown, distilled and aged in Minden, Nevada" on every bottle. The barley was grown and malted here. It was distilled in small batches and bottled here. And its distinct, award-winning flavor can only come from here.

Grain to glass, right here. Everything in the bottle starts in this field, under these mountains, at 4,700 feet in the Carson Valley. Our specially selected grains thrive in this harsh high desert climate, and that stress gives our whiskey its earthy, nutty character. High desert terroir, grown from the ground up.
