Embark on your distillery venture with cost efficiency in mind

Kickstart your distilling journey by emphasizing bottling – a prudent method

Launching a distillery need not involve a hefty investment in a big plant, a lot of machinery, or a long maturation period for your spirits.

A smarter and more economical approach to breaking into the spirits market is to begin by bottling.

The Essentials of Bottling.

This is what’s required to begin your distilling journey:.

Ethanol: The foundation of your spirits, high-quality ethanol is key.

Softened Safe-to-Drink Water: The water you combine with should be certified safe for consumption and softened for a mellow taste.

Prestige Flavoring Essences: Choose from an assortment of essences available at distillery-yeast.com to formulate a variety of spirits, whether for limited runs or extensive production.

Bottles: Opt for PET plastic bottles for cost savings on shipping and durability.

Caps, Labels, and Boxes: Essential for packaging, branding, and shipping your products.

Manufacturing Area and Machinery

A humble production area is sufficient initially. Think about leasing a space or subcontracting the production process.

You will require a mixing container with a stirrer, a basic filler, a hand-operated capper, and a simple labeler—or labels can be applied manually.

Storing your products can be as simple as utilizing a third-party logistics provider’s warehouse or your own home space.
