Contract Distillery Agreement

The receiving party is responsible for any breach of the above confidentiality requirement by any of its representatives. Here are southern`s contract services: From a dream designed on a family farm, Pete and Vienna Barger aim to build a state-of-the-art distillery in Statesville, North Carolina, to unleash home and heritage and revive the legacy of North Carolina`s deep distillation roots. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the distillation of whiskey and brandy dominated the region with thousands of gallons of spirits transported daily to and from the city. With more than 450 distilleries and two major railroad lines converging there, Statesville became known as “the alcohol capital of the world” until prohibition was passed and changed the course of history for North Carolina distillers. We work with our contract distillation partners in a variety of ways. We manufacture your product on our high-end Vendôme Copper & Brass Works equipment from the stove, 18-inch continuous column still and doubler. Our product development services include working with you to perfect your recipe or consulting with you to help you create your own recipe. We can package and store your product to achieve your short- and long-term goals. We will work with you to create a complete custom puree calculation that represents your brand and tastes. As a 100% farm-to-bottle distillery, we have the ability to bring the best ingredients such as spring wheat, winter wheat, malted barley, corn, rye and potatoes. Together, we can generate a neutral spirit or whisky that matches your brand profile and leads to competitive prices.

Southern Distilling Company is one of the largest state-of-the-art craft distilleries in the country. In addition to our own award-winning artisanal spirits, we offer contract distillation production services such as standard and custom mash-bill whiskies, private label production, keg storage and co-packaging for spirits brand owners, wholesalers and retailers. The company that hires the contract distillery does not necessarily need to have its own distillery, equipment or factory (although it can, but in this type of relationship, the contract distillery that is put into operation will produce the spirits product; sometimes companies that have their own distillery license hire external companies to distill their products when they lack space in their own facility. apply for a distillery licence or otherwise have to outsource production). c) All tools and equipment necessary for the packaging or bottles of new or modified products (“spare parts”) are purchased either by the customer or by the company (by mutual agreement) at the request and expense of the customer. The contract distiller owns the raw materials or ingredients used to produce the spirits, as well as the spirit product itself. Ownership of the spirits product generally does not pass to the customer of the contract distillery until the spirits have been produced, taxes have been paid and the final bottled product has been removed from the related area of the contract distillery establishment. SECTION 12.1 THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior negotiations, understandings and understandings, whether oral or written, with respect to them, including, but not limited to, the Confidentiality Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement may only be amended, supplemented or modified by a written document duly signed by both parties. Therefore, taking into account the foregoing and the terms, conditions, agreements and mutual agreements contained herein, the Customer and the Company agree that: Contract distillation is a type of relationship in which one company engages another to distill or produce spirits.

In some cases, the contract distillery may source spirits in large quantities from another company and simply mix the ingredients from the contract distillery and then bottle the final product. The company that distills or bottles the spirits product is generally referred to as the “contract distiller”. This company will be responsible for the production of spirits (usually from raw materials) and the bottling of the spirit product on its premises. Again, the alternative is that the distillery can source spirits in large quantities from another distillery and use the bulk spirits in combination with other ingredients to mix and bottle a final product. .
