Cedar Ridge Distillery, founded in 2005 by Jeff Quint, represents a pioneering force in American craft whiskey. As the first licensed distillery in Iowa since Prohibition, Cedar Ridge leverages the state's position as America's leading corn producer to create exceptional bourbon that captures the essence of the Heartland. The Quint family's multi-generational farming heritage informs every aspect of production, from grain to glass. The name 'Cedar Ridge' pays homage to Iowa's natural landscape, where cedar trees dot the rolling hills. Cedar Ridge has quickly established itself as an award-winning craft distillery, proving that world-class bourbon can come from beyond Kentucky.
