Kansas-based distiller MGP Ingredients has appointed North American wine and spirits distributor Breakthru Beverage as its exclusive distributor for its TILL American Wheat Vodka and George Remus Bourbon products in the Colorado region.

The agreement between the two companies is effective immediately across the state of Colorado.

MGP Ingredients recently selected Breakthru Beverage to distribute its products in Arizona and Illinois.

MGP Ingredients Brands vice-president Andrew Mansinne said: “We’ve made significant distribution gains this year and our partnership with Breakthru in Colorado represents a westward expansion that our team has eagerly awaited.

“TILL Vodka and George Remus Bourbon are a great fit for Colorado’s thriving cocktail culture and the sophisticated, yet bold flavour profiles that rank high with consumers in the mountain states.”

MGP Ingredients’ distillery team has created TILL American Wheat Vodka by using premium Kansas wheat and its proprietary distilling process.

“TILL Vodka and George Remus Bourbon are a great fit for Colorado’s thriving cocktail culture and the sophisticated, yet bold flavour profiles that rank high with consumers in the mountain states.”

TILL Vodka is currently available in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio and Wisconsin for $24.99 per 750ml bottle.

George Remus Straight Bourbon Whiskey and Remus Repeal Reserve Straight Bourbon Whiskey are produced using MGP’s aged bourbon reserves, which are located in its historic distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.
