ABOUT THIS DISTILLERY

Blackhat Distillery sits in a business complex on North Nevada Avenue in Colorado Springs, where founders Jeremy and Kimberly Hart launched their craft spirits operation in 2017. The husband-and-wife team transformed their passion for whiskey and bourbon into a small-batch distillery that focuses on traditional American spirits with a modern twist. Jeremy handles the production side while Kimberly manages operations, creating a true family venture that’s become part of Colorado Springs’ growing craft spirits scene. The distillery operates out of a converted industrial space where they produce bourbon, rye whiskey, and vodka using traditional copper pot stills and time-tested methods. You’ll find them crafting small batches with attention to detail that reflects their commitment to quality over quantity production.

WHAT SETS THEM APART

What sets Blackhat apart is their dedication to small-batch production in Colorado Springs’ emerging distillery landscape. The Harts focus on traditional bourbon and rye whiskey production using copper pot stills, which allows them to maintain hands-on control over every batch. Their approach emphasizes quality craftsmanship and personal attention to the distilling process, creating spirits that reflect both traditional American whiskey-making techniques and the entrepreneurial spirit of Colorado’s craft distilling movement.

THE VISITOR EXPERIENCE

Visits to Blackhat offer an intimate look at small-batch distilling operations where you can see the copper stills up close and learn about their production process. The industrial setting gives you a behind-the-scenes feel as Jeremy or Kimberly walk you through their distilling methods and share their journey from whiskey enthusiasts to craft distillers. The tasting experience focuses on their core spirits, allowing you to sample their bourbon and rye while discussing the flavors and production techniques that create each expression.

IS IT WORTH VISITING

Blackhat appeals to whiskey enthusiasts who appreciate small-batch craft distilling and want to support local Colorado Springs businesses. If you’re interested in learning about the distilling process from passionate founders who are hands-on in their operation, you’ll find value here. The experience is more intimate and educational than flashy, making it perfect for those who want to understand craft distilling rather than just sample spirits. It’s particularly worthwhile if you’re exploring Colorado’s craft spirits scene and want to meet the actual distillers behind the products.

⚠️ VISITING TIPS

Call ahead to schedule a visit since this is a small operation with limited regular hours. The distillery is located in a business complex, so look for suite numbers and don’t expect a traditional distillery storefront. Ask Jeremy about their aging process and future releases if you’re interested in the technical aspects of their production. Since they’re a newer operation, their aged spirits are still developing, so manage expectations about extensive barrel-aged offerings. Parking is available in the complex lot.
