WHAT WE DO

Cardinal Spirits is proud to distill the best possible spirits around, right here in Bloomington. We source quality raw ingredients and elevate them to their highest spirit by combining age-old distilling techniques with modern technology. Their flavors are perfectly balanced. Their aromas are intoxicating. They are designed to be remembered. We’re probably producing something new right this minute, and that’s what keeps things interesting around here.

HOW WE DO IT

Did you catch our gleaming, copper still through the window on your way in? It’s one-of-a-kind, and it sets us apart in the craft distilling world. It allows us to be nimble, inventive, and scalable. There’s no better place in the country to make craft spirits, and we always source as close to home as we can. Our bottling machine? It’s from La Porte. Our boiler? From Peru. And our boxes? Columbus. Indiana’s rich soil is ideal for growing raw materials like grain and corn. And, we source botanicals and fruit for spirits and cocktails from farmers and gardens right here in Bloomington.

WHY WE DO IT

You. We do this for you, because we want you to know what truly amazing spirits and cocktails should taste like. And, OK, if we’re being honest, we do this for us, too. We started a distillery because we wanted to spend our days making something we could hold in our hands. We also wanted to create a place where people enjoy coming to work, where days are fulfilling and meaningful, and where creativity and respect for each other are valued. Our loyalty to these ideas lets us make the best spirits possible.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

If you enjoy your experience here, there are a lot of ways you can help us out! First is by showing our staff how much you appreciate them with a compliment. Second is by showing our production crew you appreciate them by taking a bottle home with you. Third, you can ask for Cardinal Spirits out in the wild - lots of bars and restaurants carry our spirits. Finally, and most importantly, you can tell your friends and family about us.
