IRONCLAD DISTILLERY

I am Iron Clad.

(Just let the guitar riff play in your head while you keep reading.)

In 1862, one year into the American Civil War, the first ships to be armored in iron engaged in the waters off the Port of Newport News, Virginia. A few hours later, the Navy would be changed forever.

That mighty battle inspired Ironclad Distillery’s name.  They make authentic bourbon. That’s it. Nothing else.  And they’re sticking to their guns about that.

Working with some of Virginia’s best grains, Ironclad’s aim is to produce bourbon whiskey that is accessible in flavour and price, while being of the highest quality of production.

Located along the James River, within view of the old Battle of the Ironclads site, Ironclad operates in the prodigious S.W. Holt & Co. warehouse built in 1913.
