Hidden Gem Near Yellowstone: Wyoming Whiskey Distillery

Calling all whiskey lovers! Wyoming Whiskey, in Kirby, Wyoming, just outside Thermopolis, offers travelers a unique and easy stop on their way to Yellowstone National Park. Wyoming Whiskey promises one of the most authentic and scenic ways to experience the state’s craft and culture.

Wyoming Whiskey, Wyoming’s first legal distillery, is deeply rooted in community and committed to crafting the best whiskey highlighting the state’s rugged and beautiful landscape. The whiskey is distilled, aged and bottled in Wyoming using locally grown, non-GMO grains and limestone-filtered water pulled from a mile-deep aquifer. The aging process happens in a high-elevation rickhouse that captures the destination’s extreme daily temperature swings to help create a drink that captures the true spirit of the West: bold, smooth and distinct.

While visiting the distillery’s Wyoming Whiskey Shop, travelers can try the brand’s award-winning portfolio and even buy a bottle as a souvenir to take a true taste of Wyoming home. From the most popular small-batch bourbon to the limited-edition National Parks Series (which benefits Yellowstone and Grand Teton), the shop has something to satisfy every traveler’s taste buds.
