An introduction

The Barrel Reserve Society is an exclusive membership program designed for Tree House enthusiasts who want insider access to the whiskey and spirits program. Benefits include early access to releases, exclusive bottles, and members-only events. This program connects members to the heart of the distillery while offering unparalleled access to its craft and community.

It all started with building the warehouse. We've been quietly working on this bourbon program since 2019, pouring time, energy, and a vast amount of resources into a project that resonates deeply with us. Half a decade of patience later, we're ready to talk about it.

There's a word that describes everything we do at Tree House: Intention. Every cut in our mash bill, every degree in our warehouse, every moment we let our bourbon rest is deliberate. Bourbon rewards intention and punishes shortcuts. Every barrel tells the story of a thousand choices.

We've made mistakes along the way. We don't like making mistakes, but they forge character and build wisdom. True mastery is impossible without those lessons etched into your mind. The good news is that those growing pains are behind us, and we're further ahead than we would have been if we'd taken shortcuts.

We're making bourbon from scratch, grain to bottle - the only proper hands-on approach that will provide the best outcome over time.

The Barrel Reserve Society is for enthusiasts who value that the good things in life take time, experience some variation, and shouldn't stay the same forever.

Early access to everything we make. Behind-the-scenes stories from our team. Bottles that only exist for members. Private tours that show you how we really work. An annual gathering that builds community. 

As a founding member, you are supporting the idea that independent craftspeople can and should rule the world. Members will have the first right of renewal; there is no guarantee future space will be available.

Great beverages transform ordinary moments into extraordinary ones. They act as time machines, bridging the present with the past, evoking nostalgia for days gone by. Our aged spirits program tests the limits of creativity and works tirelessly to get it right every single time.


What’s Included

Membership Benefits

As a Founding Member of the Reserve Society, you will receive a Reserve Society Welcome Gift which includes a Membership Card, a custom Ice Stamp, and a 750 ML bottle of Old-Fashioned batched cocktail made with Old Growth Tree House Bourbon. In addition, you will receive a 750 ML Member’s Only Barrel-aged Stout, a VIP distillery and barrel-room tour, a Meet & Greet Event in Charlton with a cocktail included, and a personalized 4-pack of Old Growth Kentucky Common during the course of the first year. Best of all, you’ll receive the first right to purchase any new or limited spirit releases from our distillery before the general public. Membership is for 12 months from the date of purchase. You will have the first opportunity to renew your membership each year, before it becomes available to the broader public. Membership openings will only be made available when members either fail to renew or when we believe we can expand our membership; neither is guaranteed after this initial offering. 

Membership does not grant early access to beer releases, both fresh and barrel-aged; however, exclusive bottlings may be made available to members on occasion. Memberships are non-transferable.

Early-access releases are not limited to whiskey. Whiskey will roll out slowly: we expect two releases in year 1, four or more in year 2, and regularly thereafter as inventory matures. Members will have the opportunity to purchase additional bottles of our Old Fashioned immediately.

We will work tirelessly to ensure your experience is second to none.
