State Line Coffee Liqueur: Three Simple, Quality Ingredients

At State Line Distillery, we believe that simplicity and quality go hand in hand. State Line Coffee Liqueur is a testament to this philosophy, a rich, velvety, and indulgent spirit. It is an essential addition to any home bar, elevating your cocktail creations and offering a delightful sipping experience.

And it’s crafted from just three simple ingredients, as we were able to explore with coffee liqueur brand ambassador, Drew Brees, when he visited State Line Distillery this year. With just three simple ingredients – locally roasted Kin-Kin Coffee, golden Wisconsin wheat and barley, and pure cane sugar – we’ve created a liqueur that is both elegant and indulgent.

1. Locally Roasted Kin-Kin Coffee

The heart and soul of State Line Coffee Liqueur is the exceptional coffee we use. We’ve partnered with Kin-Kin Coffee, a local roaster known for its dedication to quality and commitment to using fairtrade coffee. Sourced from the finest coffee beans, our blend of Kin-Kin Coffee has a rich and aromatic profile and provides the perfect foundation for our liqueur. The beans are meticulously roasted to bring out their complex flavors, resulting in a coffee that is both robust and smooth.

2. Golden Wisconsin Wheat and Barley

At State Line Distillery, we pride ourselves on using the finest local ingredients, and our base spirit is no exception. The neutral grain spirit used in our coffee liqueur is crafted in-house from golden Wisconsin wheat and barley sourced from Meadowlark Organics in the Driftless region. These grains provide a smooth base, allowing the rich coffee flavors to shine through while also capturing the terroir of our beloved state. By grounding our spirits in local agriculture, we support sustainable farming practices and create a product that is deeply & proudly connected to our Wisconsin roots.

3. Pure Cane Sugar

To balance the robust coffee and smooth grain spirit, we add pure vegan cane sugar. This simple yet essential ingredient enhances the natural sweetness of the coffee, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. The addition of cane sugar results in a liqueur that is rich, velvety, and perfectly balanced. It’s this careful attention to balance and sweetness that makes State Line Coffee Liqueur a versatile addition to cocktails and a delightful sipper on its own.

Each bottle of State Line Coffee Liqueur is crafted with meticulous care and attention to detail. From the selection of the finest local ingredients to the careful blending and bottling process, our commitment to quality is evident in every sip. State Line Coffee Liqueur is an excellent addition to any home bar. Its rich and smooth profile makes it incredibly versatile, perfect for creating classic cocktails like the Espresso Martini or White Russian, or for adding a coffee twist to your favorite drinks. Its indulgent flavor also makes it a fantastic choice for sipping neat or over ice.

We invite you to experience the rich, velvety goodness of State Line Coffee Liqueur. It’s a celebration of quality, simplicity, and the local partnerships that define State Line Distillery.
