Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, our craft spirits distillery stands as a testament to the spirit of the Lone Star State. Guided by the motto of using 100% Texas-based products, our distillery not only crafts spirits but also embodies the rich culture of Texas in every sip.

At the helm is a dynamic duo, true Texans through and through, whose passion and expertise have given birth to this unique venture. John Rivenburgh and Kelly Hagemeier, partners in life and business, are renowned Texas wine leaders and innovators. John brings a decade’s worth of distillation consulting experience and their knack for building 100% Texas brands is unmatched. Their journey into the world of spirits was driven by the thrill of creating something truly Texan and exceptional.

John and Kelly and their team create a remarkable balance of industry knowledge, allowing Hill Country Distillers to set the stage for a distillery that’s as authentically Texan as it gets. Their vision and commitment to excellence ensure that every bottle from our distillery is not just a drink, but a celebration of Texas itself!
