The Industrious Spirit Company

Providence’s First Distillery Since Prohibition. The Industrious Spirit Company produces sustainably sourced vodka, gins and bourbons at Providence’s first distillery since Prohibition.  We make everything completely from scratch on site—we are proud of our unique handcrafted spirits and thrilled to have the opportunity to share them with you!

We are located on the site of a former industrial mill complex just a mile from Downtown Providence, a place where things have been made for over 150 years. In recent times our neighborhood has become a haven for makers, artists, small businesses and a burgeoning food production scene—lots of good action on the block!

We came to this project with a love for spirits and for making things by hand, inspired by our community of artists, chefs, designers and farmers. We are passionate about creating our spirits from scratch (instead of the common process of purchasing and bottling spirits made elsewhere) and about our commitment to taste—both the simplicity of a well-made classic, as well as more experimental, seasonal and locally-driven products. We love working with small producers, and source sustainably grown grains and botanicals whenever possible—we want to keep our flavor big but our impact small.

We care deeply about each step of our process—from our regional farm partners that grow our grains according to regenerative farming practices, to the time we take with our onsite mashing, fermenting, distilling, bottling and packaging. Our spent grains, a byproduct of distilling, go to a local farmer who feeds them to their livestock—creating some very happy pigs and cows! We are committed to flavor, to fun, to the spirit of creativity, and to doing things right even if the process takes time.
