Community Supported Distilling

Community Supported Distilling (CSD) is a collaborative model where local distilleries partner with community members to produce spirits. Similar to Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), individuals purchase shares or memberships upfront, providing essential funding for the distillery. In return, they receive exclusive access to products, tastings, and events. This approach fosters a sense of community, supports local businesses, and allows consumers to engage directly in the distillation process, often contributing to unique, locally-inspired spirits. CSD not only strengthens local economies but also enhances the connection between producers and consumers.
