Company Description

We produce super-premium whiskies and gins, all with gold-, silver- and other awards. All are sipping spirits, perfect neat or over ice - not requiring a mixer. We are expanding wholesale accounts, online sales and export opportunities in 7 countries. We are the only craft distillery to also operate a US-based free-trade zone to benefit from both US and Canadian spirits regulations. We are also the only craft distillery with UK permits to import, blend and bottle our own Scotch releases.

In 5 years, we hope to reach 50,000 cases of production, and plan for acquisition by a major spirits firm to allow an early exit for investors at an expected 10x return. Industry averages for acquisition of craft spirits firms show an 8.7x multiple of final year revenue. Our Year Five estimate for gross revenue is $15 million, and so we anticipate to sell at or about $90 million. We are influenced by venture cap experts and plan for a single raise with no dilution of investor shares.  These projections cannot be guaranteed.
