Tour, Tasting & Glass

In the Summer of 2011, two co-workers and friends, Logan Simpson and Anthony Jimenez, discovered they had a love and passion for craft spirits and beer. Armed with a PhD in Chemistry, distillation experience, equipment engineering, and a family lineage of Prohibition era bootlegging, they proclaimed they could make better spirits than the big guys and share a seat at the table with the little guys before them. Their strategy was to apply a do-it-yourself attitude with a simple approach to creating new and inventive spirits. Banner Distilling Co. was launched and erected with little more than 12 acres of land and $45K in savings. What transpired was a gritty and bootstrapping Texas distillery that has a chip on its shoulder and a fearless attitude to go against the grain.
