The Distillarium is a craft distillery located in Yakima, Washington. We produce a variety of spirits, including barrel aged brandy and whiskeys using only locally sourced grapes and grains from the Yakima and Columbia valleys.
Our distillery is more than just a place to get a drink. Experience the craft in action by scheduling a tour of our 14,000 square foot warehouse, outdoor courtyard, gift shop and restaurant. Get to know the art of distilling by peeking behind the curtain and discover your own appreciation for whiskey or brandy.
A true craftsman and those passionate to create indelible products go to the heart of where the finest ingredients can be sampled and sourced. That is why these fine guys and dolls made their way from Texas to set up shop in Yakima, Washington. An area awarded for its grape varietals which are used in our outstanding Brandy, Moonshine, and Vodka, and a state whose unique varieties of corn, Rye, Triticale, and Barley furnish the grain base of our whiskeys.
After four years and more than 700 barrels, we find ourselves operating one of the largest distilleries in a state overrun by craft breweries and boutique wineries. Whether you are a novice in the arena of craft spirits or a connoisseur, our spirits are complex but approachable and we can help you discover the one that’s for you!
When we established Distillarium, we did not set out to recreate the wheel of distilled spirits, but to mirror the practices of master distillers from bygone eras. We knew this would take more than sourcing the finest raw materials and the most exquisite oak casks. The Distillarium would have to be founded on the principles of patience. When creating our batches of Bourbon or Brandy, we look not to what is, but the premium quality and perfected craft of what once was.
Our product range includes The Distillarium: American Brandy, Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Straight Rye Whiskey, Straight Triticale Whiskey, Vodka and Moonshine.
