Who is Cathead Distillery?
Founded in 2010 by a couple of good ol’ cats with a love for the craft, Cathead Distillery is Mississippi’s first and oldest legal distillery. ‘Round here, first don’t always mean best—but our single barrel spirits got their mojo workin’. Named after a blues tradition honoring fellow artists, Cathead is a nod to the low-down, soul-stirrin’ music that put Mississippi on the map. Every sip is smooth as a juke joint shuffle, crafted with grit, heart, and a whole lotta soul. We give back to the music, arts, and culture that keep this place hummin’—‘cause like the blues, good spirits are meant to be shared.
