Cat's Eye Distillery Obtainium Light Whiskey

Process & Profile

Cat's Eye Distillery Obtainium Light Whiskey is a distinctive craft spirit produced by the small, family-owned distillery based in Bettendorf, Iowa. Sourced from MGP (Midwest Grain Products) in Indiana, this light whiskey was distilled on April 11, 2015, and aged for 7 years in a used charred oak barrel, a method that sets it apart from traditional bourbons.

Known for its high distillation proof and unique aging process, this whiskey offers a bold flavor profile with a nod to the resurgence of light whiskey styles.
