In the true spirit of sustainability, we craft our own line of proprietary beverages.
The FF Spirit Project, our spirits collection distilled in partnership with Copper Fox Distillery in Sperryville, VA, includes our Founding Farmers Rye Whisky and Founding Farmers Gin. And as no proprietary line would be complete without wine, we developed our Virginia Vines Rosé. All of our proprietary beverages can be found behind the bar at our restaurants.

FOUNDING FARMERS RYE WHISKY
The first in The FF Spirit Project proprietary line, Founding Farmers Rye Whisky has been behind our bar since its creation in 2009 and has since become a guest favorite. Founding Farmers Rye Whisky, created in partnership with FRG Beverage Director Jon Arroyo and Master Distiller Rick Wasmund, is made with smoked apple, cherrywood, and malted barley grown by farmer Billy Dawson's Bay’s Best Feed in Heathsville, VA, just down the road from the distillery.

FOUNDING FARMERS GIN
Our Founding Farmers Gin is a unique single malt gin with a recipe perfected for over two years. Released in 2013, it is the product of our partnership with Copper Fox Distillery in Sperryville, VA. In keeping with The FF Spirit Project philosophy, all the barley for this spirit is sourced from a neighboring farm while water for the distilling process comes from a nearby stream. Botanicals in Founding Farmers Gin, many of which are grown on the Copper Fox Distillery property, include juniper berries, cardamom, anise, orange peel, ginger, angelica, and lemon grass.

Virginia Vines Rosé
Virginia Vines Rosé is our proprietary house blend rosé handcrafted in Madison, VA with the talented team of vintners at Early Mountain Vineyards. We connected immediately with the winemakers at Early Mountain Vineyards, as they are as committed to sustainable agriculture as we are. Evident throughout the beautiful, bountiful ecosystem they’ve created to preserve the natural correlation between soil, climate, and grape. Distinctly Virginian, our Virginia Vines Rosé is a refreshing, light, and balanced rosé developed to pair perfectly with our food offerings or enjoyed on its own.
