INTRODUCING FLOWER DAY VODKA: A BRIGHT NEW BLOOM FROM DETROIT CITY DISTILLERY
Spring in Detroit means a lot of things — patios opening up, markets buzzing, and the city coming back to life one bloom at a time. At Detroit City Distillery, it also means a brand-new spirit that captures the season in every sip.
We’re proud to introduce Flower Day Vodka, a limited-edition spirit crafted to honor one of Detroit’s most beloved spring traditions. Distilled with Michigan-grown lavender, fresh lemon, and 100% corn vodka, it’s a crisp, floral vodka with no artificial flavors — just pure spring magic, made right here in Eastern Market.
Whether you're raising a glass to Mother's Day, prepping for Flower Day festivities, or just welcoming the sunshine back into your life, this bottle is made to be shared. Flower Day Vodka goes on sale first ONLINE Friday, May 9 at 8AM for $35!

A WORK OF ART, INSIDE AND OUT
To bring the spirit of spring to life visually, we teamed up with local muralist Ivan Montoya, known for his vibrant public art across Detroit. His custom label artwork wraps each bottle of Flower Day Vodka in color, energy, and a little Eastern Market soul.
This bottle isn’t just a pour — it’s a piece of the city.
KICK OFF FLOWER DAY WEEKEND WITH US!
GET A FIRST TASTE OF FLOWER DAY VODKA WITH LAVISH, OUR FDV BOTTLED COCKTAIL!

(re-)introducing two faced!
a blend of straight bourbon whiskeys
This month for our Ten Year Anniversary Series release we are launching a new bourbon to join our permanent lineup of award-winning whiskies:
Two Faced Blended Straight Bourbon
We like to say this bourbon was inspired by a hundred years of dishonest activities in search of an honest drink. Others may say it’s blasphemous to blend Michigan and Kentucky whiskey, but we wouldn’t be who we are if we didn’t make what we like to drink.
Two Faced is the best representation of Michigan agriculture combined with fine Kentucky Bourbon. This continues our passion for making something truly unique while staying grounded by our roots.
For those of you who remember: Two Faced was actually the first ever bourbon Detroit City Distillery released and now it's back and better than ever!
And as always, to celebrate we're throwing a bourbon release party starting at 4PM on August 23rd. Since Two Faced Bourbon is an unholy matrimony between Detroit and Kentucky bourbon, we thought it'd only be right to do a Detroit vs. Kentucky cocktail menu for the night! Come to the party, give our new signature spirit a try and join the cocktail fight night!

shutdown bourbon returns
the story
In March of 2020 our world shut down. Instead of making whiskey every day we started making hand sanitizer. All in all, we made 25,000 gallons for first responders, hospitals, and essential businesses.
After a few months of The Shutdown we thought everyone could use something to help get through the tough times. So we decided to release 120 proof four grain bourbon. It was a fan favorite in 2020 and four more years has only made it better. This one will sanitize your hands, and cleanse your soul.
Shutdown Bourbon goes on sale on Friday, May 17th at 4pm for $70 a bottle. We will be doing this release the old fashioned way, in person, first come first serve! Everyone in line prior to release will receive a ticket to secure their bottle. This release will be limited to two bottles per person!

a word from j.p.
ten long years
Eight childhood buddies set out on a journey to make the spirits they wanted to drink: Gin with botanicals never used before, vodka from corn grown by our neighbors, a new rum blend to make the perfect daiquiri, paczki day vodka(!), and of course, the absolute best whiskeys made from Michigan grown corn, rye, barley, and wheat.
“This will be so fun. It will be easy!,” we thought. Of course, the road has been tiring and nothing has come easy. Blood, sweat, and too many tears have been distilled, barreled, and bottled for 10 years. But it is all worth it whenever we hand our loyal Whiskey Club members a bottle they could never get anywhere else in the world. Or when a guest who “hates gin” tries our spirits and ends up buying a bottle of Shopkeeper’s Gin. Or when someone visits the Whiskey Factory or the Tasting Room for the first time and then immediately thinks about the next time they’ll come back, and who they can bring with them to check out DCD.
The people that have supported us in some way over the past 10 years, are the people that we are celebrating. The hundreds of prestigious awards are nice, but if it were not for all of you then we would have given up a long, long time ago.
THANK YOU for all your support!

ABOUT THE BIRTHDAY BLEND
For nearly a decade, we've been grinding away, making whiskey from scratch in Detroit, and the world has taken notice. For the second year in a row, Butcher's Cut Bourbon and Homegrown Rye won double gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. It's the top prize at the oldest, largest spirits competition in the world. Basically, we swept the Whiskey Olympics TWICE.
Butcher’s Cut Bourbon was one of only seven bourbons in the country to win back-to-back double gold honors, beating out some of the biggest Kentucky bourbon names this year like Four Roses, Buffalo Trace, Old Forester, Knob Creek, and Yellowstone. Homegrown Rye was one of two rye whiskeys in the world with win back-to-back double gold honors.
The “Back-to-Back Blend” is a fun way to give ourselves a little shine for beating out some of the biggest names in Kentucky Bourbon. It’s not bragging if you have the gold to back it up, right? We've blended flavors from some of our favorite barrels of Butcher’s Cut Bourbon and Homegrown Rye. It was a really fun process to taste through all the hard work we put in over the years. This one is like our greatest hits in a bottle.
While the mash bill technically makes this one a bourbon (51+% corn), we in the industry call these "Bou-Ryes." It's a blend of bourbon and rye whiskeys and its a golden flavor bomb of deliciousness. PS - We have no idea how old this one is technically, and we were too drunk to do the math when we blended it. We do know it is not 9 years old. It's a blend of some epic 4 to 8 year old Homegrown and a bunch of bonded 4 year+ Butcher's.
Our first ever single barrel rum release

Our first ever single barrel rum release was an epic Miami Vice street party. The boys wanted to bring a little South Beach style to Detroit for the summer and it delivered! Thanks to everyone for coming out to party with us and getting your hands on this super-limited release.
