Lodestar Whiskey

Lodestar American Whiskey, a blend of Straight High Rye Bourbon and American Single Malt Whiskey, stands out as a women-founded and led brand. Co-founded by cousins and entertainment industry veterans Anna Axster and Wendelin von Schroder, Lodestar was born from their desire to create an inclusive and approachable spirits brand. From the very beginning, Anna and Wendelin aimed to foster a sense of community through their whiskey, a passion rooted in their decade of collaboration in music and film. Their love for whiskey, cultivated through their work travels, inspired them to craft a high-quality, approachable spirit that reflects the laid-back California lifestyle where Lodestar is based and embodies the universal truth that life’s special moments are always better when shared.
