California-Made
Certified Craft Distillery
Our spirits are the real deal!
Production
We take pride in small-batch production. Quality over quantity, traditional techniques, and honestly, probably more effort than the bottle price reflects. Two 250-gallon copper alembic pot stills churn away at our distillery in Healdsburg, Sonoma County, doing most of the actual hard work. Whether it's mashing grain for whiskey, pressing local wine for gin, or fermenting Sonoma County fruit for brandy, every step happens on-site, under our own eyes. If something goes wrong, there's no one else to blame it on.
Craftsmanship and Dedication
We oversee every stage ourselves, not because we're control freaks (though, fair, maybe a little), but because it's the only way we know how to do this. That on-site process lets each spirit end up with its own character instead of one formula stretched across everything we make.
Unique Flavor Profiles
We're not trying to reinvent anything, or challenge any status quos. We just keep tinkering with technique and ingredients, sourced as close to home as we can get them, until something tastes like it's worth sharing. Sometimes that takes a while.

Barrel Gin
80 PROOF (40% ABV)
Alley 6 Barrel Harvest Gin is crafted in traditional alembic copper pot stills using traditional techniques. Once we have the base spirit, it is distilled one final time with the botanicals and rested in French Oak barrels.
Spiced Peach Liqueur
80 PROOF (40% ABV)
A full Summer in the making, our Spiced Peach Liqueur is a labor of love from the orchard to the bottle.
Candy Cap Bitters
86 PROOF (43% ABV)
Alley 6 86’d Candy Cap Bitters is composed of aromatic Candy Cap mushrooms foraged from the Sonoma Coast and a melody of baking spices that are extracted with our base rye spirit and finished in small oak barrels.
Our head distiller and co-founder, Jason Jorgensen, was 86’d from the bar industry due to residual prohibition laws in the state of California. Our line of 86’d Bitters is his ode to the industry.

Coffee Liqueur
60 PROOF (30% ABV)
Alley 6 Cold Brew Coffee Liqueur is a joint effort with a local Sonoma County favorite, Wolf Coffee. Wolf Coffee Organic Mocha Java blend is extracted by a cold brew technique and used as the base. Then it combines with our grape-based distillate, a touch of sugar, and rests on rye whiskey barrels.
Certified Craft Spirits | DSP-CA-20064
We're a Certified Craft Distillery, DSP-CA-20064. That means we meet the American Distilling Institute's standard for an independently-owned distillery producing under 52,000 cases a year, physically distilled and bottled on-site. In plainer terms: nothing sold here was made somewhere else and shipped in with our label slapped on top. If it's sold in the tasting room, we made it, argued about it, and probably lost sleep over it.
