MGPI

Mgp Ingredients, Inc.

A major American distiller and food-ingredient maker, MGP supplies the whiskey behind dozens of well-known brands (including Bulleit Rye) and owns labels like George Remus Bourbon, while also producing wheat proteins and starches for food makers. It began in 1941 as Midwest Grain Products, a wartime alcohol distillery in Atchison, Kansas, and grew into a contract distiller nicknamed the "backbone" of American whiskey. Fun fact: its famous spicy "95/5" rye recipe is a tell for enthusiasts that a bottle likely came from MGP.
