Who makes Devils River Whiskey?

Answered by Randall Whitlock

Devils River is a creation of mine, Mike Cameron. I am a self-taught distiller, and my passion for whiskey led me to embark on the journey of crafting my own unique spirit. I believe that the key to making exceptional whiskey lies in the quality of the used in the distillation process.

For me, water is not just a simple component of whiskey production; it is the foundation upon which the entire spirit is built. I have always been fascinated by the impact that water can have on the flavor profile of a whiskey. It can bring out subtle nuances, enhance certain characteristics, and ultimately contribute to the overall quality of the final product.

When I set out to create Devils River Whiskey, I knew that I needed to find the perfect water source. After extensive research and exploration, I discovered the pristine Devils River in Texas Hill Country. The water from this river is exceptionally pure and untouched, making it ideal for whiskey production.

The Devils River is known for its remote location and rugged beauty. It is an untamed river that carves its way through the limestone canyons, providing a unique and untouched water source. The water is filtered naturally through the limestone, which imparts a distinct mineral character to it. This mineral-rich water adds depth and complexity to the whiskey, creating a truly exceptional drinking experience.

To ensure the highest quality, we take great care in sourcing the water from Devils River. We have established a partnership with the Devils River Conservancy, an organization dedicated to protecting and preserving the river's ecosystem. This partnership allows us to sustainably access the water while supporting conservation efforts.

Crafting Devils River Whiskey is a labor of love. Every step of the process, from selecting the grains to distilling and aging the spirit, is done with meticulous attention to detail. But it is the water, sourced from the remote and untouched Devils River, that truly sets our whiskey apart.

Devils River Whiskey is the result of my passion for whiskey and my belief in the importance of water in the distillation process. The pristine water from the Devils River, with its mineral-rich character, plays a crucial role in creating the exceptional flavor profile of our whiskey. It is a testament to the power of nature and the art of distillation, and I am proud to share it with whiskey enthusiasts around the world.
