Copper Crow Whey Vodka is crafted at Copper Crow Distillers in Bayfield Wisconsin.  Copper Crow is the first native American owned distillery in the US.  The distillery was established 2016 by Linda and Curt Basina.  Both are members of the Red Cliff band of Lake Superior Chippewa.  Curt a retired Wisconsin State Trooper is the distiller.  He also makes a wheat vodka, gin, and rum.  Copper Crow Whey Vodka is made through a partnership between the University of Wisconsin Stout in Menominee and Copper Crow Distillery.  It is made from Wisconsin whey, a by-product of the cheese making industry.  The whey is sourced from Burnett Dairy in Grantsburg Wisconsin.  It is distilled in small batches and then continuously filtered for 24 hours.  The spirit is cut with well water from a Lake Superior aquifer.
