The distillery is located in the heart of the Russian River Valley wine region. It was carved out of the buildings originally housing an apple canning
and processing plant owned by the Hallberg family, one of the area’s preeminent families during “West County’s” apple production heyday. With a big focus on sustainability, Redwood Empire's still is designed distill in a single pass, preserving both water and energy. Further, their 'Buy a bottle, we'll plant a tree' program has resulted in over 500,000 new trees being planted. Every day the distillery lives up to their motto 'Redwood Empire Whiskey is not just a product of its environment, it’s a part of it'.
