We’re doing things at Moonrise Distillery like they’ve been done since the early 1850s. While at times it seems like an old-fashioned, inefficient process, our use of tried and true methods and time consuming double-distillation removes impurities for a more refined and complex craft spirit. And unlike most distillers, we let our spirits tell us when they are ready – aging by taste and not by time.

Creating world class spirits is a commitment and passion at Moonrise Distillery. We strive to produce products you want, an experience you want to be a part of and a back story you can connect with. As a family operation our formula is simple – use the best ingredients, the best tradecraft without compromise and treat you like family. We hope to see you soon

Few things compare to the pleasure of relaxing in rich leather with people you enjoy while sipping on expertly crafted cocktails and spirits. Our downtown speakeasy bar, tasting room and bottle shop is reminiscent of the speakeasies of the 1920’s. Explore this unique location in downtown Clayton Georgia

Distilling is a science and blending is an art. It takes a comprehensive understanding of science, a dedication and commitment to traditional tradecraft and the relentless pursuit of quality to craft world class spirits. 

As artisans we focus equally on the 40% “science” of distilling and the 60% “art” of barrel aging and blending. Motivated by quality we reject all alcohol that does not assure a smooth and healthy experience for our customers. 

Our commitment to quality at a fair price drives our portfolio. We use the highest quality ingredients, local where possible while assuring we respect the environment that contributes so much to the quality and distinction of our products.
