Red Cedar Spirits is one of Michigan’s oldest legal distilling operations, dating back to 1998. The distillery and cocktail lounge are located in the former City of East Lansing Public Works building which was restored and converted into the current distillery in 2012. The setting is tranquil and the outdoor patio offers a peaceful get-away in warmer months. A stream that is a tributary to THE Red Cedar River flows through the property.

Red Cedar Spirits gets rave reviews for its vodka, gin, whiskey, bourbon and brandy. Our artisan approach involves using artisan stills to make uniquely crafted spirits. The production of our spirits from the grain (or fruit) to the bottle takes place in the Red Cedar Spirits Distillery. Attention to detail and scientific expertise result in smooth, consistent, well designed products.
