Sometimes great ideas are born from conversations with family and friends while enjoying a fine cocktail. In one such conversation in 2016, I shared, what I thought was a great idea with my husband Mike: We should start a hobby of distilling small batch spirits, after all, my family grows corn on our Kansas farm and bourbon and vodka need corn. Maybe we could even sell a few bottles. And much to my surprise, Mike loved the idea.
Quickly my idea became a hobby, which has now become our passion. Our vision became more defined as we moved through the process: To create the finest portfolio of premium bourbons and vodkas. Quality without compromise. Only the finest grains, people, and processes. Only natural ingredients. No shortcuts, sugars, or artificial additives. Natural. Authentic. Premium. Delicious.
After years of research and development, Carefree Bourbon, Chakra Vodka, and Carefree Spirits Distillery were born. We were on a mission to build a great national distilling business. By 2022, both our brands had received 30 international awards for taste and quality. Today, both Carefree Bourbon and Chakra Vodkas are available online in 41 states, with hopes to cover all 50 states and then expand internationally.
