Death's Door
Death's Door is a notable craft distillery located on Washington Island in Wisconsin, celebrated for its high-quality spirits, particularly its gin and whiskey. The brand is named after the treacherous waters of Death's Door Passage, which separates Washington Island from the mainland and has historical significance in maritime navigation. Founded in 2005, Death's Door Distillery has built a reputation for its artisanal approach to distilling, focusing on using locally sourced ingredients and traditional methods.
The flagship product, Death's Door Gin, is renowned for its unique flavor profile that sets it apart from traditional gins. Made with a blend of organic botanicals, including juniper berries, coriander, and fennel, as well as a distinctive use of hard red winter wheat, this gin is known for its smoothness and balance. The wheat base gives it a creamy texture, while the botanicals contribute to bright citrus and herbaceous notes, making it a versatile spirit ideal for cocktails or enjoyed neat.
In addition to gin, Death's Door also produces a range of whiskies, including a straight whiskey and a white whiskey. The straight whiskey is crafted from a mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley, aged in new charred oak barrels, resulting in a robust flavor profile with notes of caramel, vanilla, and spice. The white whiskey, often referred to as "white dog," is unaged and showcases the raw character of the grains, offering a unique tasting experience for those interested in exploring the early stages of whiskey production.
Death's Door has gained a dedicated following among craft spirit enthusiasts, celebrated for its commitment to quality, authenticity, and the local agricultural community. The distillery embodies a modern approach to traditional distilling, making its products a sought-after choice for both casual drinkers and serious connoisseurs.
