HB 2684 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Designates J. Rieger & Co. the official Kansas City whiskey of Missouri

HB 2684 designates J. Rieger & Co. as the official Kansas City whiskey of Missouri. The bill recognizes the company's historical significance as the largest mail-order whiskey house in the U.S. before Prohibition and its role as the first whiskey distilled in Kansas City since Prohibition, following its 2015 revival. This is a ceremonial designation with no regulatory or financial impact on the company or state operations. The bill does not create new laws or affect any policies beyond this symbolic recognition.
