From Ravenswood to the Skies: Chicago’s KOVAL Distillery is officially joining United Clubs nationwide on March 1st!

Hey Reddit family! We have some major hometown news to share.

Starting March 1, 2026, KOVAL Single Barrel Bourbon will be featured in United Club locations across the country as a premium "For Purchase" selection. As an independent, woman-owned distillery rooted right here in Chicago since 2008, seeing our Midwest craftsmanship reach a global audience through our neighbors at United is a massive milestone. Also a great win for local manufacturing!

Why we’re excited to share this with you:

• The "Heart Cut" Quality: Travelers will now have access to our signature organic bourbon, which is known for its "heart cut" distillation, a process that captures only the finest part of the spirit for a bright, approachable flavor.
• The 51/49 Mash Bill: This is a grain to bottle Chicago Bourbon, crafted with a unique, sustainable and regenerative mash bill of 51% corn and 49% millet.
• Regenerative Agriculture: We work directly with Midwest farmers to source our grains. By using millet, we support a regenerative crop that actually adds nutrients back into the soil and promotes healthy agriculture. Millet is also drought resistant and adds diversity to the ecosystem.
• Award-Winning Pedigree: We’re bringing over 100 international awards to the lounge, including the Chicago Mayor's Medal of Honor.

Planning a trip soon? If you’re passing through Chicago, don't just stop at the airport. Come visit us at 4241 N. Ravenswood Ave to see the grain-to-bottle process in person.
