Bottle Image May Vary Cat’s Eye Distillery is a small family owned micro-distillery whose mission is to create truly EPIC tasting products. John Baker, one of the owners, previously worked at Honey Creek Distillery in Van Buren County where we gained his initial experience distilling products. Since then he has done considerable research and met with owners of 22 different micro-distilleries in Colorado to see what works and what does not work. After much experimenting they released their first whiskey product, “Essence of Iowa” followed by “Krupnik”, “Juniper Delight”, and “Some Like it Hot” which is a jalapeno based spirit.
