Niagara Falls
Craft Distillers
Our Story
Started in the heart of the Falls, Niagara Falls Craft Distillers is a state-of-the-art distillery that prides itself on making the highest quality craft liquids based on its location, using the unique water, local ingredients and a superior distilling process.
Our Water
An estimated 60 tons of dissolved minerals are swept over Niagara Falls every minute. Making this some of the most unique and mineral dense water in the world and a unique point of difference in our process. We distill to a very high proof before cutting our products with the limestone rich waters that run through the mighty Niagara Falls. We use our own Reverse Osmosis system to purify the water while keeping the minerals intact, leaving our products with a distinctively smooth mouthfeel. The finishing touch is a dosage of droplets collected from the mystified cloud suspended at the base Niagara Falls.
Column Distilling
Each Small Batch Is crafted with care. While most distilleries work with columns that have 6-12 places we use a 21 plate column to distill all our clear spirits, this leaves us with a finish that is cleaner and purer that the competition. We pride ourselves in cutting the “heads” and the “tails” to leave our product full of “heart”. The heads are the first flow from the still, high in strength, but poorer in flavour. Then comes the heart, the most desirable liquid of the distilling run. The weaker tails at the end of the process are also less desirable in terms of taste. While it is expensive for us to only use the heart and not recycle the heads and tails, we believe that our customers deserve the best spirits in terms of quality and craftsmanship.
