Cream has been on a quest to find a family-owned and operated distillery that embodies the rich history and tradition of one of America's most iconic spirits: bourbon. In July 2024, we had the pleasure of meeting Bethany and Darin Dillow, Ph.D., the passionate founders of Limestone Farms Heritage Distilling Co. With a profound Kentucky heritage, the Dillows represent the heart and soul of American bourbon craftsmanship.
LF Heritage derives its name from the rich limestone deposits that bless Kentucky, infusing the water with a unique, supple texture and flavor that contributes to the unparalleled quality of Kentucky bourbon. Nestled in the scenic hills of Georgetown, KY, just a few miles from Lexington—the birthplace of bourbon in the late 18th century—lies the historic Morgan Family Farms. Morgan Family Farms is a sprawling estate that has been in Bethany’s family for five generations and now the home of LF Heritage Bourbon. Their land is more than just a distillery; it's a working Black Angus cattle farm meticulously managed by the Dillow family. The family lives on the farm, nurturing a legacy that stretches back to the late 1800s.
Crafting bourbon with an unwavering commitment to excellence, LF Heritage carefully selects mature and often rare mash bills from some of the most acclaimed distilleries. These handpicked corn-forward Kentucky mash bills are artfully blended to create a non-homogenized, distinctive flavor bursting with fruit and tobacco nuances, rivaling some of the finest whiskeys we at Cream have ever had the pleasure of tasting.
Primarily via word of mouth, their exceptional whiskeys have quickly become a standout in the category. As the distillery expands, construction is underway for a new blending facility, with plans to open a state-of-the-art distillery on the property by the end of 2024.
We are thrilled to welcome Limestone Farms Heritage Distilling Co. to Illinois and introduce their exquisite bourbons to a whole new audience.
