About

1220 Spirits is a botanically-inspired craft distillery founded in 2018 by the brewers of 4 Hands Brewing Company in St. Louis, Missouri. The distillery complements the adjacent brewery by exploring the creative relationship between traditional brewing and craft distilling, starting with a dream to make gin and growing into a portfolio of over a dozen products including gins, vodka, amaro, aperitif, rye whiskey, and canned cocktails. Their approach emphasizes bold botanical experimentation and barrel-finishing techniques while maintaining sophisticated spirit quality.
