  BENDT No. 5 American Blended Whiskey is the first whiskey blend of its kind. What could be better than a tasty bourbon created by hand? Or maybe a rye? Perhaps a wheat? All of the above is correct. The sweet spot is found by taking the best of each distinct whiskey and bending and weaving each of their flavors together to create something new and amazing, smooth and delectable. BENDT can be found there. The first blended drink was produced in 2017, and our first blended whiskey was released in 2019. This happened after years of experimenting, changing recipes, and preparing whiskey mixes. If creating whiskey was our first love, the art of blending had become our second. BENDT Distilling Co. provides your visitors a one-of-a-kind experience, whether it's a private distillery tour or happy hour for your staff or a fully catered event for your entire organization. We accept groups of all sizes, with inside room for up to 125 people and outdoor area for up to 150. Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, engagements, showers, and retirements are all excellent occasions to hold a party, and we would be delighted to host one.

The appropriate setting for your special day is an outdoor or barrel room ceremony followed by an intimate reception in the whiskey garden and/or tasting hall.
