O! So good! - Founded in 1887, revived in 2014. Proudly distilling in Kansas City’s historic Electric Park neighborhood!
About us
Jacob Rieger & Company was originally founded in 1887 in Kansas City’s West Bottoms Livestock Exchange district. The distillery produced over 100 alcoholic products on a national basis, including the iconic Monogram Whiskey, but it was forced to close in 1919 with the advent of Prohibition. In 2014, 95 years after Prohibition, the brand was relaunched by business partners Ryan Maybee, creator of Manifesto and co-founder of The Rieger, and Andy Rieger, the great-great-great-grandson of Jacob Rieger. The current distillery is located in the historic Electric Park district within the East Bottoms of Kansas City. The core spirit product line includes Kansas City Whiskey, Midwestern Dry Gin, Caffè Amaro, and Premium Wheat Vodka.

We are Kansas City through and through. Nothing makes us happier than working with other iconic local brands on projects that excite our community and let our city pride shine through. In honor of the release of the adidas x Major League Soccer Archive Collection, we have teamed up with Sporting Kansas City to release Oh When The Wiz Straight Bourbon Whiskey. The Archive Collection includes Sporting KC's highly-anticipated third jersey featuring the Kansas City Wizards logo and colors in tribute to the iconic uniforms from the team's early era. Oh When The Wiz is a blend of four to five-year old barrels of our bourbon, bottled at 96 proof (in honor of the team's inaugural season of 1996) and limited to 1000 hand-numbered bottles. Available now at our distillery, it pairs perfectly with nostalgia, heritage, and hometown pride.
