Eight Settlers’ spirits are mashed and distilled to the highest standard from the best ingredients available. Each spirit is refined to maximize its highest potential and quality. Using old school techniques with a modern twist in their process, the distillery team is dedicated to producing a unique take on classic spirits.
Our spirits pay homage to the hardworking settlers that painstakingly established the Cottonwood Heights area to prosper – a place we are proud to call home.
In the 1800’s, Ragtown was established midway between Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons to provide miners with somewhere to stay during their long journeys between the mines and the city. A simple town with makeshift homes and a few small stores, Ragtown became a refuge for hardworking people to take a break, relax and enjoy the rich surroundings of nature before returning to the long days working in the mines.
Blended and handcrafted locally, Ragtown American Whiskey is a unique blend of two robust and smooth straight American whiskeys with a bold yet smooth aroma. The spicy flavor with distinct notes of spice and pepper are complemented with a subtle sweetness. This balanced blend delivers complex flavors while maintaining a smooth finish.
BLEND OF STRAIGHT WHISKEYS

Devil’s Gate, a narrow impassable section of rocky quartz, was one of the most influential rock formations on the pioneer trail. Its rugged terrain forced them to enter the valley where Salt Lake City currently exists, rather than at a more northern point. It established the city as ‘the place’ and became the foundation for growth along the Wasatch Front. Many of the original settlers established themselves in Butlerville, making it a prosperous and well-known area.
Devil’s Gate is aged in oak barrels in small batches to enhance its oaky, vanilla aroma. The light amber color implies simplicity, while the subtle taste conveys a sweet vanilla flavor with a hint of buttered bread and corn oil. Sweet, grainy spice, vanilla and oak notes add a bit of complexity that offers a satisfying and smooth finish.

Settled by five Butler families, the area known originally as Butlerville, was best known for its treasured paper mill that brought prosperity and notoriety. While the town’s economy revolved around the mill, the families also cultivated the land, bringing vital natural resources to the valley. The area quickly attracted new settlers who came to the valley seeking opportunities to thrive and raise families.
Made in small batches, our vodka is triple-distilled to ensure the highest quality and flavor. Beginning with a smooth, medium-bodied flavor and array of lightly sweet aromas, Butler Vodka has a distinct crisp, clean finish sure to please any palate!

In the mid-1800’s, ditches were the lifeblood of the Butler area, bringing water to crops, livestock and homes. They were vital to families’ efforts to establish their settlements and flourish independently. Green Ditch pays tribute to the hard-working families who settled the area and their tenacity to create opportunities for growth, prosperity and a strong community. We are proud to offer a brand that exemplifies a modern take on this unique historical heritage.
Among Green Ditch’s seven carefully curated botanicals, star anise and citrus peel are noticeably vibrant along with the upfront juniper kick in this refreshingly unique gin.
