LOCATION MATTERS
Located in Statesville, North Carolina, a town with a big role in bourbon’s history. Before Prohibition, Statesville was known as the “Liquor Capital of the World”. With a 20-acre campus housing a state-of-the-art 36,000 square foot distillery, you can build and support your brands with the highest quality bourbons and ryes. We diligently watch over the 65,000 barrels aging in our rickhouses, eager to match them with the right partner.
AWARD-WINNING SPIRITS
The whisky wins. Receiving top ratings, reviews, and accolades from the esteemed voices in bourbon the products crafted at Stateville Distilling Company include awards such as the 2022 win for Southern Star Paragon Wheated Bourbon Single Barrel at the New York World Spirits Competition; Best Single Barrel & Best Bourbon Overall. More importantly, ask any of the 140 clients such as Fred Minnick’s Ascot Double Platinum awarded Ponfeigh Westylvania Rye and the newly released SFWSC Gold medal winning Brother’s Bond Regenerative Grain Bourbon.
STATE-OF-THE ART CAMPUS
The state-of-the-art fermentation and distillation systems allow us to consistently create the high-quality spirits customers and clients demand. The rickhouses today contain 65,000 barrels of aging bourbons, ryes, and American single malts, aged up to 7 years. The extensive aged barrel inventory paired with a new fill program, provides both unmatched product continuity and an unparalleled opportunity to create a unique and distinct blend.
SUSTAINABILITY & REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE
Ensuring full-circle sustainability, more than 80% of the grain is grown using regenerative agriculture in partnership with local Piedmont-region farmers. All spent grains and water from the distillation process is returned to local farms for use as cattle feed and fertilizer.
CONSISTENCY & INDUSTRY PARTNERS
You gain access to the on-site analytics lab which continuously tests the liquid to ensure optimal products for every client. We also maintain working relationships with multiple cooperages to ensure an uninterrupted supply of barrels, and provide access to reliable suppliers of premium glass, labels, and packaging.
