— a local event that attracts large and small-scale distillers from around
the country — has grown steadily since 2008, keeping pace with the growth and
popularity of domestic spirits.
Artisanal and small-batch spirits are moving through the door opened by craft
beer (Capital Brewery and New Glarus Brewing Co., for example, have been
producing for decades).
Death’s Door opened a 25,000 square-foot
distillery in Middleton in June, and it is now the state’s
largest. Reporter Lindsay Christians used the occasion to take a great look at
the growth of local spirits, which also include Yahara Bay and Old Sugar here
in Madison.
And several of Madison’s best bartenders drew on local products to create cocktails that represented the
city, from the Whiney Madisonian to the James Madison.
Time reported last year that the 50
micro-distilleries nationwide in 2005 has since ballooned to 250.
Yet despite the recent growth, there may never be nearly as many as there
were before Prohibition was enacted in 1919. The Atlantic said in a piece earlier this year
about the often arcane regulations surrounding distilling that there were some
14,000 licensed federal distillers in the early 19th century.

brand of its own.
Pierre Pringuet, CEO of Pernod Ricard, told journalists today at its
half-year presentation for 2012/13, to “not be surprised to see new initiatives”
from the group in craft spirits.
He added that any activity from Pernod Ricard may not necessarily take the
form of an acquisition, hinting at the launch of a completely new brand.
Is craft something that has legs?” he said. “Will it become significant or
will it remain niche? Is it the sort of thing the consumer will buy with no
repurchase? It’s something we’re looking at carefully.”
He added that a new craft brand would embody the characteristics of quality
craftsmanship – size, provenance, recipe and packaging – hinting that the new
brand would not be an extension of one of the group’s existing international
brands that are produced on a large scale.
Craft distillers –in the US, UK and in Western Europe – are increasingly
becoming known as innovators for their ability to produce spirits on a small
scale.

cocktails.
