Est. Chatom, Alabama
Every bottle starts with patience — and a willingness to wait.
We don't rush. Every spirit is distilled in small batches at our Chatom distillery, aged until it's ready, and bottled only when it tastes right. That's the Creek Bottom way.

Our Story
Rooted in the soil
of southern Alabama
Creek Bottom Distilling was born from a simple conviction: that great spirits can't be rushed, and they don't need to be complicated. We started in Chatom with a copper still, a handful of local grains, and a lot of patience.
Today we continue the same way — small batches, traditional methods, and an insistence on quality over speed. Our distillery sits on Jefferson Avenue, a quiet stretch in a town that still values doing things the right way. If you stop by, you'll likely meet us behind the bar. That's how we like it.
Our Spirits
What we pour
Each spirit is distilled, aged, and bottled in our Chatom facility. What we offer changes with the seasons — here's what you'll find at the bar today.
Creek Bottom Bourbon
Aged American bourbon with notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a quiet sweetness. Our flagship — the one we're most proud of.
Small Batch
Creek Bottom Vodka
Triple-distilled and charcoal-filtered for a remarkably smooth finish. Clean enough for a martini, bold enough on its own.
Triple Distilled
Smoky Creek Rye
Spicy rye with a subtle smoke character from our barrel-char process. Bold, dry, and built for sipping neat.
Rye Whiskey
Creek Bottom Gin
Infused with locally foraged botanicals — juniper, citrus peel, and a hint of wildflower honey. Bright and aromatic.
BotanicalOur selection rotates with each distillation cycle. Reach out to check what's currently available or to place a custom order.
The Process
Slow by design
We don't chase efficiency. Every step in our process is intentional — from grain to glass.
Source
We start with locally grown grains and pure spring water from the Chatom area. Quality begins at the source.
Distill
Our copper stills run in small batches, giving us full control over every pour. We taste along the way — not just at the end.
Age
Barrels rest in our warehouse until the spirit reaches balance. We don't set a calendar — we taste until it's ready.
Bottle
Each bottle is hand-filled, labeled, and sealed at our distillery. What you hold is exactly what came out of the still.
