Signature Barrel Program
The Signature Barrel Program (SBP) is an innovative idea that offers whiskey and rum lovers a unique and fun experience. Learn the secrets of hand crafted spirits from Copper Run and create wonderful memories making your very own barrel of whiskey.
There are many reasons to own a barrel of whiskey, let alone make one! It’s an investment that appreciates over time, it’s a rare learning experience, it’s a great marketing opportunity, it’s a unique gift, and it’s a barrel of whiskey with a great story.
Whatever the reason, Copper Run Distillery is here to ensure that you will have the best quality handcrafted Ozark Mountain spirit in it.
With our barrel program, you do more than just point to a barrel of whiskey; you’ll be directly involved in crafting your own whiskey recipe! Do you prefer a Single Malt, Wheat, Corn, Rye or Specialty Grain? We will help you formulate a recipe and invite you to participate in the production of your barrel. The barrel will rest in our warehouse to age. When it’s ready to bottle, we’ll put together a private label for your very own bottles.

Option #1
Option #1- The simplest option is you can select a barrel from our existing inventory of ready-to-bottle barrels. The way this process works is you and a small group of your friends would come to our distillery and taste samples from three barrels that are ready for harvest.
You would pick the one you wanted for your personal barrel. A custom label design is included in the price. The barrel would be harvested and bottled as soon as we receive label approval from the federal government. A full barrel, if bottled at 80 proof, would yield approximately 300-350 bottles.
Option #2
is to create a new barrel for you. The cost for this option is the same and includes custom label design. The difference is this option provides an opportunity for a hands-on experience. That is, we invite you to come to our distillery and actually do the mashing and distillation yourself with our supervision. The price includes 3-year in-barrel aging. Additional aging time can be purchased for a nominal fee. Finally, you can come to our distillery as often as you like to sample from your barrel. The decision for when to harvest your barrel is 100% up to you. For an additional fee, you can choose a custom mash bill.
We also can do ½ barrels for either option #1 or option #2 with one of our mash bills.
Custom mash bills require the full-barrel option.
