A path forged by tradition, and doing things the hard way, because it’s the right way.
A spirit that’s truly a reflection of all those age-old Kentucky traditions, bold new ideas, and dedicated people who have touched it along the way.
Cold Spring Distillery
This 6-year-old single barrel bourbon masterfully blends notes of corn, rye, and malted barley for a product that reviews the spirit of the original.
BARREL FINISHED GIN
Smooth and complex, our Barrel Finished Gin nods to the pride of place, tradition, and legacy for which the Dant family is known.
With the Monk’s Road Fifth District Series, we tip our hat to the historic tax district of Central Kentucky, deeply seeped in bourbon lore. With this rotating series of hand-selected spirits, we honor a long line of rotating bluegrass-inspired bourbons created with the same ingenuity and fortitude made by the many generations of Dant distillers.
So, just this once, let’s celebrate the taxman.

Cold Spring Distillery
Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey
This first-release 6-year-old single barrel bourbon pays homage to Cold Spring Distillery, a historic distillery founded in the 1800s on land where we are currently located in southern Nelson County, Kentucky. The Cold Spring name harkened back to the spring where, even in the summer, the water stayed cool enough that the distillery could continue to operate.
Starts off with lively fresh-cut oak, followed by English toffee, cola spices, and sweet toasted coconut.
Bold spice right out of the gate, with clove, nutmeg, and allspice. This is followed closely by coconut and hints of apple, vanilla, caramel, and a firm round mouthfeel that give evidence of considerable maturity.
This whiskey closes with rye spice and warm oak tannins in concert with classic oak sweetness that lingers well past the last swallow.
DRY GIN
Our essential gin is a unique offering from the rolling hills of Kentucky, with a delicate balance of complementary botanicals. We’ve married watermelon rind with zests of orange and lemon for a bright and fresh flavor, creating the perfect gin for all seasons and palates. Sip it slow and neat or dress it up in a dapper cocktail. This palate-pleaser definitely has an air of refinement.
Bold and lively aroma that exudes lemony citrus and earthy forest notes against a background of peppercorns, juniper, and cinnamon.
Sweet lemon peel with complex earthiness and an abundance of spice. Juniper is present but doesn’t take center stage, instead playing a support role to bring balance to this harmonious concoction.
Crisp and dry on the back end that finishes with citrus peel and lingering coriander and cassia that lasts and lasts.
barrel finished gin
Taking full advantage of our wheated bourbon barrels, we handcrafted this barrel finished gin in homage to our hometown Kentucky hills, allowing fresh botanicals of coriander, cranberry, juniper, and nutmeg to develop and mature into the perfect flavor profile. Smooth and complex with a subtle waft of smoke.
Initial cedar and toasted oak balanced with vanilla, spice, and stewed fruits. Hints of flora notes honey, citrus zest, and muted juniper.
Palate is rich in oak sweetness, with vanilla and warm mulling spices that push the juniper to the background. It displays a round satiny texture that is polished by the barrel aging.
Juniper makes another brief appearance in the finish and it fades to a touch of citrus zest and then finally ends with dry tannins and other hints of the previous life of the whiskey barrel in which it spent some time.
