about skaalvenn distillery

Skaalvenn Distillery was started in 2014 by a regular working class husband and wife who in 2013 started pouring their small life savings into a dream. No investors. No shareholders. No outside interests.

We wanted to make good spirits at prices everyone could afford.

In 2015 we distilled and launched our first two spirits, Skaalvenn Vodka and Rum.

Over the years we added on Aquavit, Habanero Rum, and a sourced aged Bourbon to the Skaalvenn lineup.

In 2020 we opened our cocktail bar...

We always make sure our employees have access to the best healthcare plan we can possibly afford with no deductibles and low total out of pocket expenses. Our spirits cost just a little more because we believe our employees should never have to think twice about the cost of going to the hospital or seeing a specialist.

Our employees come first because we have: No investors. No shareholders. No outside interests.

Our awesome employees past and present are the reason Skaalvenn Distillery is still in business.

Thank you for buying local, we all really appreciate it!
