Item Description

Private tour & tasting for 20. Established in 2008, KOVAL produces organic whiskey, liqueurs and specialty spirits in Chicago's first distillery since the mid-1800s.

Founders Robert and Sonat Birnecker, chose to leave their academic careers to bring the distilling traditions of Robert’s Austrian family to America. In making this decision, they vowed to make organic spirits from scratch (avoiding the common industry practice of purchasing and bottling pre-made spirits) and to change the way people understand whiskey by creating a new, signature style - using only the “heart” cut of the distillate - affording a brighter, cleaner take on whiskey.

Our staff will explain the differences between white and aged whiskey, the subtle intricacies of distillation, and the delicious beauty of small-batch spirits. See where each and every step of our process takes place. Tasting of numerous spirits is just one of the perks! Learn the differences between white and aged whiskey, the subtle intricacies of distillation, and the delicious beauty of small-batch spirits. After the tour, partake in a tasting of KOVAL's products.

Guides available on Sunday from 5-7 PM area. Monday through Friday tours we are flexible with booking times.

KOVAL Distillery, KOVAL Store and KOVAL Tasting Room are located at 4241 North Ravenswood Avenue, Chicago, IL 60613.
