In Traverse City you can stumble upon a building on the outskirts of town that hosts a custom built Arnold Holstein still from Germany. For the past decade that still has been utilized to produce the region's premiere spirits from grain to bottle, spirits that have received international acclaim and awards. Our distillers make cuts by taste and not by automation. We empty barrels when they're perfect and not on a schedule. Every bottle is inspected and capped by hand, and all of that results in a truly handcrafted spirit. ? At our downtown Traverse City tasting room, we offer the option to host meetings, events or parties held either in our events space or the entire location. The Grand Traverse Distillery Tasting Room in Traverse City is an excellent location for a wide range of events with the option of reserving spaces for up to 48 in our back room, or 145 people for the entire tasting room. Located in the historic Kresge Building on Front Street in the heart of downtown Traverse City, the tasting room provides a unique venue for a variety of parties, receptions, and special occasions.
