- Our Mission -
At Craft Spirits Social, our mission is simple: to connect people with exceptional spirits and the makers who craft them.
- Meet The Founder -
For more than 20 years, our founder, Beth Hurwitz, worked in the bottle and wares industry, building relationships with distillers across the country. Over and over again, she heard the same frustration: getting bottles into retail shops was difficult, and even when they made it onto shelves, they often sat unnoticed. The real story — the passion, craft, and artistry behind each spirit — was rarely told.
The reality is that the three-tier system makes it incredibly challenging for independent distillers to reach customers. Distribution hurdles, limited shelf space, and a lack of education in traditional retail all contribute to incredible small-batch spirits flying under the radar.
- The Story Behind the Spirits -
Craft Spirits Social was created to change that. Our retail shop, bar, and events give distillers a platform where their stories are told, their spirits are highlighted, and customers can truly engage with what makes each bottle special. Through guided tastings, curated cocktails, and hands-on education, we help guests not only discover new favorites, but also understand the craftsmanship and passion that brought them to life.
And here’s the best part: craft spirits often outshine the big-name brands, offering richer flavors, better ingredients, and a level of craftsmanship mass production can’t match. They’re made in smaller batches, with more attention to detail and an artistry that can’t be replicated by mass production. At Craft Spirits Social, you’ll taste the difference – bold flavors, unique profiles, and spirits with real character.
Here, every pour has a story, and we’re here to make sure it’s heard.
