It was a cold and rainy day in February 1998, when the Edgefield Distillery proudly opened its small doors, like a dream that has bubbled to the surface after many years of percolating. In company with a small yet resolute group of micro-distillers in this county, the Edgefield Distillery is housed in a rustic lair of a building, once a dry shed for storing root vegetables grown on the Edgefield estate during the poor farm days, and today serving as Distillery, Bar and 19th hole of Edgefield's "pitch 'n' putt" golf course.

With glass in hand while standing behind a wall of ornate and etched glass, visitors can watch our 12-foot-high, gleaming copper-and-stainless-steel still in full swing. It resembles a hybrid of a 19th century diving suit and oversized coffee urn, a design made famous by Holstein of Germany, the world's oldest still manufacturer.

Whiskies, brandies and gins are created here and specialties of the house include the rich, amber-hued Hogshead Whiskey, fragrant Edgefield Brandy and popular Professor's Gin, as well as Longshot Brandy and Pear Brandy.

Maintaining a unique, symbiotic relationship with Edgefield's Brewery and Winery, our Master Distiller uses our own Hammerhead Ale and Edgefield Chardonnay as base spirits, as well as Pinot Gris grapes from our 5-1/2 acre vineyard located at the north edge of the property.

Spirits can be sampled and purchased at the adjacent Distillery Bar, a most comfortable and inviting pub. Literally boasting windows into the past, the walls are fashioned from a series of etched windows that once adorned the likes of the White Horse Inn and Bellman's Cross Inn.
