The Watershed Story

It started as an idea between two friends to trade in the comfort of the known for the dream of creating something bigger than themselves. It was a wager fueled by passion, backed by community, and grown by sheer will.

 The dream has inspired us to create award winning spirits since 2010, it’s why we’ll continue to do it for years to come.

 Forever forging our own path, in pursuit of our next watershed moment. 


Greg Lehman, Founder, COO

Watershed Distillery produces Ohio’s #1 selling Ohio-made bourbon and gin portfolios, along with an award-winning craft vodka and a variety of specialty spirits.

We offer tours Wednesday through Sunday and were the first distillery in Ohio to have its own restaurant, Watershed Kitchen + Bar, consistently named one of the top cocktail bars and restaurants in Columbus.

Distillery Tours

Tours are a great way to get to know us, our process and our spirits. A distillery tour includes an overview of the distillation process from grain to bottle. The tour lasts approximately 1 hour with plenty of time to shop for bottles, scope out the barrel fort, choose the perfect souvenir, and ride the tilt-a-whirl. Just kidding, we don’t have a tilt-a-whirl (yet).  Afterwards, we welcome you to join us for a cocktail or two at the bar or sit down for dinner and enjoy the view! Sound fun? It is!
