I have been envisioning and cultivating the concept for Barman’s Bespoke Spirits for a long time. Long before I was distilling spirits in my garage, I was designing mobile cinemas, illustrating cocktail bars, crafting mobile carriers and looking for other innovative ways to bring my custom creations to the consumer. I’ve always been a dreamer and a visionary. I like to think outside the box.

For several years now I’ve been focusing on the prize way up at the top of the tree; my own craft distillery. Because my focus was not on the branches I’ve stumbled a few times. With each fall though, I’ve learned some valuable lessons that have propelled me forward.

I’d like to ask for your help to raise a smaller sum to get started and focus on my next step. The first branch of many that will help me in actualizing my goal. This goal is to raise $20K. This is the money I will need to begin distilling from home, to take the iStill’s online training course and to travel abroad and receive a master distiller certification in Amsterdam.
