More info:
Grand River Spirits is a locally-owned craft distillery in Southern Illinois. Creating spirits that showcase Southern Illinois' grains and fruits. Our offerings will include brandy, whiskey, bourbon, rum, seasonal spirits (such as grappa and schnapps), and of course Red Eye Moonshine. Made from Southern Illinois crops, the production of these premium, hand-crafted spirits are made with the best of the Midwest.
As a craft-distillery in Southern Illinois we will focus on moonshine and whiskey within in the first year, including small, single barrels of whiskey. Don't let our small size fool you, all of the storage, packaging, distilling and tasting is housed under one roof.
Our Process
Our hand-crafted spirits are distilled in a 80-gallon Kothe craft potstill with three plates column, a custom German-engineered technology proven over centuries. Distilling is the process by which ingredients are naturally fermented into a slurry. This slurry is then heated in the still to evaporate the alcohol and chilled back into a liquid. The basic recipe is water, yeast, and sugar-yielding ingredients such as grain, or fruit.
Our Resources
We believe in the traditon that only the best ingredients make the best product. Staying true to this we choose the best local, quality products from Little Egypt. Our region earned this nickname when it shared its breadbasket to feed Chicago during the food shortage of the 1930's. Orchards run by generational families, such as Rendleman and Flamm orchards, provide the apples and peaches that flavor our spirits.
