An inside look into our distillery process, masterfully executed in Los Angeles, California
The iStill is the cutting-edge in distillation technology
The centerpiece of any distillery, the still, plays a vital role in ensuring the quality of spirits. At our distillery, we utilize the cutting-edge iStill, manufactured in the Netherlands, to create our spirits.
The iStill represents the pinnacle of modern distilling technology, offering precise consistency in beverage production. Its advanced features, along with its compact design and insulation, have significantly decreased operational costs by up to 90% compared to traditional copper stills whilst retaining top quality output. This cost reduction lowers our carbon footprint and promotes a sustainable practice.
While distillation has been practiced for centuries, with records dating back to 1200 BC for the production of perfumes and aromatic oils, significant technological advancements were not made until the 12th century AD when it began to be used to distill spirits. The invention of the column still in the early 19th century marked the last major breakthrough in distillation technology.
At La Bay Gin Distillerie Californienne, the iStill is a crucial component of ours, enabling us to create exceptional spirits with precision and consistency. We take pride in implementing the latest technology to craft spirits that embody our commitment to quality and innovation.
“Harnessing cutting-edge distillation techniques, we create exceptional gin with precision, efficiency, and unwavering quality, delivering a consistent taste experience every time”
