Subtle and floral with notes of grapefruit, honeydew, bee pollen & beetroot. Hibiscus adds a pink hue to this sweet and earthy gin.

Sweet hay and sunbaked earth with notes of warm fruit & juniper in this complex gin. Filtered through oat straw lends its subtle color.

Coming soon: Aged a minimum 2 years, our 100 proof Fox River Bourbon is mashed with corn, malted barley, rye and malted rye, giving this tasting room favorite traditional vanilla and oak cues with a sweet and peppery finish.

Take barrels from our bourbon runs, give them to a local maple syrup producer, let them rest their syrup in those barrels, and then take them back to refill them with our signature Fox River Michigan Whiskey. The results are a limited edition run that carries the same quality tasting whiskey with just an unmistakable hint of Michigan Maple Syrup character. This spirit lands somewhere north of the standalone Michigan Whiskey on the sweet scale, but still well south of our Fox River Bourbon.

We created this Michigan whiskey with our signature 4-grain mash bill. Filtered through cherrywood charcoal for a smoky finish.

Fox River Rye Whiskey is distilled from 100% rye, rather than being cut with corn, wheat or barley. All of our A2DC rye is sourced from local area farms and distilled entirely on premises. There are no additives from other distilleries added to our Fox River Rye, giving us complete control over the product. The rye sits in a new American Oak barrel for at least one year, but regularly much longer. We simply wait until it is ready to go. If you are a fan of rye, Fox River Rye definitely belongs in your collection, waiting for other like-minded rye drinkers to sit at your table and enjoy this rare spirit.

This all-corn unfiltered vodka provides the perfect well pour for mixed drinks, in the bar, restaurant or right at home. All Hawthorne products give back to the community, through charity engagements designed to promote the best our community has to offer.

We are pleased to introduce our newest spirit- Revival Gin. Revival Gin is made from 100% local non GMO corn, distilled with coriander, rosemary and bay leaves. For every sale of a bottle of Revival Gin, $3 will be donated to the Revival Fund that will support different local charities every month.

Most folks feel like they have tried a coffee liqueur before. That is, until they try our take on it: cold brew concentrate blended with almond and vanilla, then barrel-aged to give it a roasted, full flavor without the excessive sweetness.

Our Spaulding's Peppermint Schnapps veers away from the super-sweet versions you might remember from Christmas past. We revisited the concept, creating a fun, light spirit with notes of custard and mint ice cream. Add this to a hot beverage, from coffee and tea to your best hot chocolate, and you'll have visions of sugarplums.

Water Hill Absinthe Violette uses the classic ingredients of wormwood, fennel and star anise, along with other, less common ingredients that pay homage to the terroir of Michigan. Such as linden and elderflower. The resulting spirit is a unique violet hue that transforms into a cool lavender when diluted.

A2DC's take on the popular herbaceous aperitif popular with soda water or both classic and modern cocktails. A2DC Apertivo is infused with citrus and botanicals to create a slightly bitter spirit. Try an Apertivo Spritz mixing one ounce of Apertivo with two ounces of champagne and a splash of soda water, or a classic Negroni using equal parts Arbor Gin, Apertivo and your favorite Water Hill Fruit Liqueur.

The A2DC Water Hill line is where we park our most ambitious experiments. To make our Fernet, we sourced as many local products from farms right next door including rhubarb root, hibiscus flower, peppermint, spearmint, sage and others. These key elements, along with eleven other herbs and botanicals, creates a unique take on the traditional Italian Amaro. Both bitter and sweet, Water Hill Fernet is a delicious grain to glass post-dinner digestif, or as an ingredient in your favorite cocktails.

MIsco is our inspired take on the classic South American spirit Pisco and is distilled from Michigan grown grapes. The result is a fragrant and pure spirit - perfect for a traditional MIsco Sour or in any of our other creative cocktails.
