Alex and Deek have reused every step of the way: from the truck to the materials to screws.

Do you have that feeling? The feeling that we are stuck in an endless cycle of re-purchasing plastic bottle after plastic bottle over and over again. Creating needless waste. Let's break the cycle! Let's start refilling our empty bottles instead of tossing them!
Our refill store is practical, easily accessible, and the experience is tangible. You know as you are refilling your empty bottle that you are actually making a difference. (Unlike the recycle bin where you toss stuff in and just have to hope that it really does end up getting recycled.)
Noble Oak was created with a goal of offering a great whiskey that gives back. It's simple - every bottle plants a tree. For three years now, we have worked with our partners at One Tree Planted to plant trees in areas of need around the country.
Our efforts have spanned from the Redwood Forest in California to Detroit, Michigan, to the Finger Lakes in New York, and everywhere in between.
