THE DISTILLERY

Cardinal Spirits is a craft distillery in Bloomington, Ind., that makes vodkas, gins, rums, liqueurs, and canned cocktails, and distributes them in 12 states and Washington, D.C. Everything we use to distill and flavor our award-winning spirits are real-deal botanicals, fruits, and spices — we never use bottled extracts or flavorings — and we source local ingredients like grains and honey and walnuts whenever possible.
WHAT YOU CAN DO HERE
At our distillery, we have a tasting room, cocktail bar, and restaurant, and we offer distillery tours, too (currently, tours are paused due to the global pandemic. Our restaurant and bar offers cocktails and food from scratch on Wednesdays-Saturdays, plus Sunday brunch. Our beautiful patio is among the best in Bloomington, overlooking the B-Line walking and biking path.
WHY WE DO IT
Why did we start Cardinal Spirits? Because we wanted to make something we could hold in our hands; because we wanted to create a workplace where people enjoy showing up, where days are fulfilling and meaningful, and where creativity is valued; and because we wanted to increase connections among people and our community.
