Our Story

Locally Crafted In the Heart of Appalachia

Every sip we create for our customers is the result of a hardworking, curious mind. Our family-owned distillery began as a time for a father and son to bond over their mutual love of science and the art of distilling, and has since grown to a full scale operation that produces award-winning spirits each year. 

Anchored by a multigenerational history in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, Cultivated Cocktails is a more than just a beverage company: it's a destination where everyone is treated like family and invited to join our story.

The Howard Family

With H&H Distillery (now Cultivated Cocktails), father-son duo Wendell and Taylor Howard set out to create a craft liquor uniquely theirs, while still paying tribute to their deep regional roots.

​

Many of Cultivated Cocktail's spirits are named for local points of interest or after the Howard family's history in Western North Carolina.
