Talnua Distillery

A craft whiskey distillery in Arvada, Colorado that describes itself as America's first dedicated American Single Pot Still whiskey distillery, applying Gaelic single pot still tradition to American grain and production. The house style pairs Irish-derived pot still technique with what the company calls American pioneerism, and the distillery presents a range of award-winning whiskeys, including an annual limited release, the Olde Saint's Keep Special Release, whose prior expression took Gold at the World Whiskies Awards. Production is on site at a working distillery that visitors can walk through from grain to glass on a guided tour and tasting, and the same facility supports a single barrel selection program in which individuals, groups and businesses taste through maturing casks, hand-select a barrel and have it bottled at cask strength for their own account, an effective private-selection and custom-bottling capability for trade and gift buyers. Consumer-facing operations run alongside production: a cocktail lounge with a rotating weekly cocktail menu, a tasting room, tasting and tour bookings, an events calendar, and an online shop for bottle purchases with pickup at the distillery, plus to-go pickup by phone. Guests must be 21 or older with valid ID, and the patio is dog friendly. The company has drawn national media attention, including a CBS News feature. Volunteer bottling sessions are periodically announced to its mailing list, indicating small-batch, hands-on bottling runs rather than high-volume automated packaging. For a supplier directory the relevant strengths are single pot still whiskey distillation, barrel maturation and cask-strength bottling, single-barrel private selection, and an on-premise hospitality and direct-to-consumer sales operation attached to the distillery.
