Founded in 1847, Midwest Grain Products Indiana (also known as MGP, previously known as Lawrenceburg Distillers Indiana, or LDI) is one of America's powerhouse distilleries producing spirit for multiple well-known brands. To our knowledge, no other independent bottler has ever released whiskey produced at MGP/LDI, and displayed the distillery name as the source of the whiskey.
