Our Story

The Winter Park Distilling Company was founded in 2010 by locals Paul Twyford and Andrew Asher.  What they built is a true testament to passion and community spirit. In the heart of a charming community nestled north of Orlando, they set out with a humble handmade 50-gallon still and a collection of old whiskey recipes to establish the region’s premier craft distillery – the first of its kind in Orange County, Florida.

 

For Andrew, and Paul, crafting exceptional spirits is more than a business venture; it’s a matter of personal reputation and local pride. Knowing that every bottle of whiskey, rum, and vodka they serve reaches the hands of friends and neighbors they encounter daily, they maintain an unwavering commitment to excellence. Whether the spirits are enjoyed by those just down the street or enthusiasts across the country, the Winter Park Distilling Company remains steadfast in producing only the highest quality libations.

Our Process

At Winter Park Distilling Company, we take pride in our commitment to sourcing the finest local grains, ensuring the authenticity and flavor that reflect the essence of our region. Each batch of our meticulously handcrafted spirits is a labor of passion and dedication, embodying the true artistry of distillation and the distinct character of Winter Park, Florida.

Artfully Crafted

We diligently source choice local grains and molasses, ensuring that each element of our mash is carefully selected to create the perfect foundation for our exceptional spirits.

Perfect Balance

We distill in a twin-column reflux still with copper plates that perfectly balances the flavor profile of each spirit with precision.

Distinctive Aging

We age our spirits in oak barrels amidst Florida's legendary heat and humidity, allowing for an extraordinary maturation process.

Inimitable Character

After primary aging, some of our spirits take on additional maturation - acquiring a deep and harmonious character with flavors like arabica coffee.

Pioneering Excellence: The First Award-Winning Bourbon in Florida

Our bourbons set the standard for excellence, earning prestigious awards and accolades. Join us on a journey of exceptional taste and experience the spirit that embodies our craft’s time-honored traditions.
