HOW WE CRAFT

We are a Small Batch grain-to-glass local manufacturer of alcohol spirits. We see ourselves as Hyper - Local. We produce our products by hand within the four walls of our Distilled Spirits Plant (DSP) in Fairfield, NJ. Mashing, fermenting, distilling, aging, blending and bottling is performed locally in Fairfield by our own staff.  Materials matter! Raw materials in the form of grains, fruits and produce are aquired from New Jersey farms as well as NY and Pennsylvania. We do utilize some other farms and purveyors, since things like Sugar Cane (in the form of molasses) do not grow anywhere around New Jersey. Our goal is to obtain these materials in as high a quality as possible and as close to, or within, New Jersey if at all possible.

Distillation does not create alcohol. It's purpose is to separate the alcohol from water and other materials and develop flavor. We start the process, you can see below, by making a beer or wine utilizing yeast. The yeast creates alcohol as a byproduct of their consumption of sugar. Once the fermentation is complete is when the distillation begins! There is a large amount of chemistry in what we do and distillation is at the center, but there are many other phases that create the products we make.

Visit our facility and you we not only experience the production first hand but you will get an all encompassing sensory interaction. The Tasting Room is a great way to introduce yourself to our spirits. Taste them neat or in cocktails!

We are a continual working facility and you will see things in tanks, running in stills, being bottled, etc. Our production operations runs 4-5 days per week. We are an active and working DSP.
