Great North Vodka

The name on our label; Great North Vodka, is an abbreviated spin on the famous Great Northern Railroad. A fitting tribute to those who worked tireless hours building Montana’s railroads which allowed endless opportunities in the new frontier.

Great North Vodka is made from wheat raised in North Central Montana and pure mountain water that has worked its way from the from the high altitude peaks of the Beartooth Pass, down the Yellowstone River, to our distillery in the  historic Billings Depot complex.

Healy's Gin

Our gin is named after my Great Grandfather Michael Healy. His pioneering spirit and entrepreneurial ingenuity enabled him to prosper during prohibition. In an era when the Butte copper mine was known as the richest hill on the earth, he was the toast of the town for his bootlegged spirits. A modern American Gin balanced with a variety of botanicals including your traditional Juniper and Coriander, some non-traditional such as hops and Heather tips, and native plants like Sweet grass and Bitterroot. The result is a complex creation with local flair, a true Montana Gin.

Helay's Reserve

Healy’s reserve is our award winning Healy’s Gin aged in our used rye whiskey barrels. The result is a smooth sipping spirit that confuses your senses and intrigues your palate by imparting oaky characteristics from the barrel aging process that masterfully compliments the floral notes of the botanical base
