Discover more about Arizona Distilling Co.

Arizona Distilling Co. is a craft distillery located in Tempe, Arizona, committed to sharing Arizona with the world, one glass at a time. Since 2012, it has devoted itself to every spirit with exceptional ingredients and the utmost care. The distillery produces high-quality, small-batch spirits. Arizona Distilling Co. was the first to legally distill liquor in the state since Prohibition. The distillery's team spent seven years refining their technique, sourcing local grains, and parsing plenty of legalese. The fruit of all that labor is Copper City Bourbon, barrel-aged for at least two years and named for an Arizona brewery that was shut down during prohibition. Though bourbon remains the micro-distillery's cornerstone, the lead distiller has already begun branching out into small-batch gin made with local botanicals and Desert Durum Wheat Whiskey, locally-sourced grain whiskey. Visitors can explore a range of spirits and expertly crafted cocktails. The warm and inviting atmosphere welcomes you, making it an ideal spot to unwind. The distillery takes pride in using locally sourced ingredients, ensuring that every sip reflects the rich flavors of Arizona. Distillery tours usually include spirits tastings and opportunities to purchase the distilled spirits you just tasted. Tours typically last from 30 to 60 minutes.
