Area Sales Representative

Gunnar's Bourbon is crafted in Kansas, built on family, and made to be shared. What began with nine cousins distilling inside the historic Bradford Hotel in Sedan, Kansas has grown into its next chapter, with operations now based in Wichita. Guided by family values and a commitment to craftsmanship, Gunnar's believes great bourbon is about quality ingredients, patience in the barrel, and bringing people together.
