NOCO Distillery is expanding its distribution into Wisconsin while launching internationally in Hong Kong and Switzerland, with additional global markets currently in development. This expansion comes as the Colorado-based distillery releases a series of ultra-high-proof, single-barrel craft spirits that push the boundaries of modern American distilling.
The distillery's latest releases include Bourbon 4x – Second Edition, a four-times-distilled bourbon aged in a four-year seasoned oak barrel and bottled at cask strength, 64.65% ABV. Despite the proof, it shows remarkable balance with caramelized brown sugar, vanilla, and orange peel notes, while clove-and-cocoa depth carries into a long finish touched by espresso and chocolate-covered orange.
More extreme releases include a Port Barrel Finished Grape Brandy bottled at 73.9% ABV, qualifying as HAZMAT and potentially ranking among the highest-ABV brandy releases ever produced. The distillery also introduced its first HAZMAT agave spirit, TOKILYA – Don Sebastian, crafted from 100% Blue Agave, aged more than four years in new American oak barrels, and bottled at 72.5% ABV.
An upcoming release, "Sanguis Christi," is a high-rye bourbon finished in Ruby Port and Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry barrels and bottled at 64% ABV. All releases are offered as single barrel expressions and feature innovative barrel and multi-barrel finishing techniques.
"Innovation is key, and our master distiller is pushing the boundaries of craft distilling to a whole new level," said Josh Green, Distillery Manager at NOCO Distillery. Each of these releases was distilled by NOCO Distillery, reflecting the hands-on approach the distillery applies across most of its portfolio, from distillation through aging and bottling.
NOCO Distillery produces more than 30 different spirits and marked its most successful year to date in 2025. The distillery's expansion represents a significant move for American craft spirits into international markets, particularly in Asia and Europe where premium spirits markets continue to grow.

This expansion and product innovation come at a time when global demand for premium American craft spirits continues to increase, particularly in markets like Hong Kong and Switzerland known for their sophisticated spirits consumers.
