ABOUT THE DISTILLERY
Grand River Spirits is a locally-owned craft distillery in Southern Illinois. Made from all-local grains and fruits, our premium, hand-crafted spirits represent the best of the Midwest. Our whiskies, bourbons, and ryes are distilled in an 80-gallon Kothe craft potstill with three plates column, a custom German-engineered technology proven over centuries of tradition.
What people say about our whiskey…
“I usually do not drink the “heavier” liquors but I love their moonshines and their bourbon! It is deceptively smooth! Taking a bottle with me on vacation so I can have a little Southern Illinois on the beaches of the Gulf!”
