Artisan Hand Crafted Spirits

Around the world, we’re seeing an increase in the number of craft micro distillers.

These micro distillers use handmade copper batch stills and locally grown raw materials to make a wide range of spirits based on quality, character and a large helping of passion from the people involved.

A large proportion of the global commodity spirits are based on redistilling “Neutral Grain Spirit” which is the output of huge continuous distillation plants using the cheapest source of raw materials available – most often corn.

The quality and taste of the ethanol coming from these continuous distillation plants is considered by many to be inferior to that batch distilled in bespoke, handmade copper stills, as used by the micro distiller.

Small-scale batch distillation produces spirits of a quality and character that far surpass the mass produced products.

Using a more lengthy manual distilling process, the best quality local ingredients & “cutting” the final alcohol at a purer level, all add to the cost of producing these fine handmade spirits – but you will taste the difference.
