🥃 Meet the Founder: Floyd "Beau" Wheeler Jr.

Floyd "Beau" Wheeler Jr. is the founder and driving force behind Arthur Wheeler Spirits Company in historic Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

Beau's path to distilling began with a meaningful gift from his father: a carefully aged barrel that would change the course of his life. This sparked his transition from a successful career in talent management—where he honed his instincts for quality and attention to detail—into the craft of spirit-making. More than a career change, it became a way to honor his family's legacy while pursuing a new passion.

At Arthur Wheeler Spirits Company, Beau has built something rooted in quality and community. He's hands-on in every aspect of production, from selecting ingredients to overseeing distillation and aging. The result is a range of distinctive spirits that respect traditional methods while reflecting his own creative vision.

Each bottle represents Beau's commitment to creating something genuine and exceptional—spirits he's proud to share with others.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the base ingredient of Arthur Wheeler Vodka?

A: Our vodka is distilled from wheat, which gives it a distinctively soft, airy texture. Unlike potato or corn vodkas, wheat provides a delicate sweetness and a "fresh dried field" aroma.

Q: Is this vodka gluten-free?

A: While the distillation process removes gluten proteins, it is made from wheat. Persons with extreme sensitivity should consult their physician, but generally, distilled spirits are considered safe. We focus on purity and clean distillation.

Q: How is this vodka distilled?

A: We use a micro-batch distillation process. This allows us to tightly control the quality and remove impurities (the "heads" and "tails"), keeping only the ultra-smooth "heart" of the spirit.

Q: Why does this vodka taste "buttery"?

A: That creamy, buttery sensation on the finish is a hallmark of high-quality wheat vodkas. It is not an added flavor; it is the natural character of the grain shining through a clean distillation, making it perfect for a Martini or sipping chilled.
