Highway Distillery is Texas’ first Black-owned distillery, co-founded by Ben Williams and Wendell Robbins in Houston, Texas. Known for creating the only hemp-based spirit with mainstream distribution in the country, the distillery spent over 8 years perfecting a unique process using a distinctive strain of hemp seed, locally sourced corn, and pure water from an artesian aquifer. The woman-led, purpose-driven distillery is celebrated for its proprietary slow filtration through six copper plates that preserves the nuanced character and silky smooth mouthfeel that distinguishes their vodka.
