In addition to its massive business as a bulk contract distiller and food ingredient supplier, MGP Ingredients owns and operates a growing portfolio of proprietary branded spirits. Its owned brand lineup includes Luxardo (famous Italian liqueurs and cherries), George Remus Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Rossville Union Straight Rye Whiskey, Penelope Bourbon, El Mayor Tequila, and Rebel (formerly Rebel Yell) Bourbon, alongside other craft spirits that give the enterprise direct-to-consumer brand equity.
