Virginia’s Catoctin Creek Distillery Relocates

August 19, 2013 – Catoctin Creek Distillery has completed its move from the original distillery to a renovated historic site in Purcellville, Virginia. Owners Becky and Scott Harris opened the original distillery in an industrial park in 2009, producing organic and kosher whiskies and other spirits.

Last year, they realized that they had outgrown the industrial park site, and acquired the historic Case Building in downtown Purcellville. Construction started in April on a $500,000 renovation project, and was completed earlier this month. Production has already started at the new distillery, which will host a Grand Opening weekend August 23-25 to celebrate the move.
