Info & Amenities

More than a place on a map, Savannah has always been the inspiration behind everything we do.

Whether someone was born here, built a life here, or simply spent a memorable weekend wandering beneath the city's moss-draped oaks, Savannah has a way of leaving an impression that stays with you long after you've gone home.

How do you capture the spirit of Savannah in a bottle?

That question led to the creation of Savannah Distilling.

Founded in 2012 by Georgia natives Justin Farmer and Charles Barfield, their families, friends, and colleagues, Savannah Distilling was built on the belief that great spirits should tell a story. Through exceptional ingredients, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a passion for authentic Southern hospitality, we create handcrafted, premium spirits that celebrate the history, character, and timeless beauty of Savannah and Georgia's coast.

Whether you know us as Savannah Distilling or simply Savannah Distillery, every bottle we produce is guided by the same goal: to honor and reflect the city we proudly call home.

Today, visitors and locals alike can experience Savannah Distilling throughout the city, from favorite restaurants and rooftop bars to hotels and package stores. Exclusive single-barrel selections can be found at select locations, and our spirits can now be ORDERED ONLINE and shipped throughout most of the United States (click the "visit website" button to the left).

Our Spirits

Savannah 88™ Bourbon

Georgia's first bourbon brought to market since Prohibition, Savannah 88 Bourbon is where our story begins. Aged more than four years and bottled from a carefully selected blend of barrels, it showcases the rich character that develops in the South's warm climate while remaining remarkably smooth and approachable.

• Small-batch straight bourbon bottled at 88 proof
• Aged more than four years
• Notes of caramel, vanilla, oak, and spice
• Crafted for both seasoned bourbon enthusiasts and newcomers alike

Founder's Reserve Single Barrel Bourbon™

For those seeking something truly special, Founder's Reserve represents the very best of Savannah Distilling. At the four-year mark, our Master Blender identifies exceptional barrels that stand apart for their depth, complexity, character, and smoothness. These rare barrels are set aside for additional aging before being bottled individually, resulting in a one-of-a-kind bourbon experience that can never be exactly replicated.

• Bottled at a bold 108 proof
• Currently aged more than seven years
• Limited releases prized by collectors and bourbon enthusiasts

Savannah Sweet Tea Bourbon™

Inspired by a classic Southern sweet tea recipe, Savannah Sweet Tea Bourbon has become one of our most recognized and requested products. Unlike sweet tea vodkas and many tea-flavored spirits that begin with a neutral spirit base, Savannah Sweet Tea Bourbon starts with real bourbon and is infused with steeped black tea, lemon, and natural sugars. The result is a distinctly Southern flavor that consistently surprises first-time drinkers and keeps them coming back for more.

• Called "the ultimate slice of the South in a glass" by The Travel Channel
• Crafted with real bourbon, black tea, lemon, and a blend of all-natural cane and brown sugars.
• A favorite bottle to take home after visiting Savannah
• Enjoy neat, in a Dirty Palmer, or as a Southern twist on an Old Fashioned

Savannah Bourbon & Honey™

Savannah Bourbon & Honey brings together two beloved Savannah brands: Savannah Distilling and Savannah Bee Company. Crafted with only two ingredients, Savannah 88 Bourbon and award-winning Sourwood Honey, it highlights the unique character of one of the South's most celebrated honeys. The result is a smooth, flavorful spirit that is distinctly Savannah in both origin and taste.

• Crafted with award-winning Sourwood Honey from Savannah Bee Company
• Notes of honey, maple, spice, and light floral sweetness
• Perfect for sipping neat or over ice
• Excellent in classics like a Bee's Knees or a Hot Toddy

Savannah Vodka™

Honoring the Lowcountry with America's smoothest vodka, Savannah Vodka is crafted from 100% select corn and distilled six times for exceptional smoothness. Crisp, clean, and versatile, it has earned a reputation for outperforming expectations in blind taste tests and has become a favorite behind bars, in cocktail programs, and at home.

• Crafted from 100% select corn
• Distilled six times for exceptional smoothness
• Naturally gluten-free
• Multiple blind taste-test winner
