History
[edit]Distillery planning started in late 2011. In 2012, the location was identified near the Craftsman Brewing Co. TTB approved and issued its license November 21, 2013. The CA ABC approved and issued its license December 21, 2013.[2]
Stark Spirits facility is less than 1200 square feet and is essentially a nano-distillery because of the annual production capacity. At full production capacity, including the bottling of barrel-aged rum and whiskey, the distillery can manufacture fewer than 5000 cases annually.[3][4]
Greg Stark is the head distiller and Karen Robinson is the assistant distiller. Greg started his distilling business after many years of making home-brewed wine and beer.[5][6]
Stark Spirits received recognition as a certified craft distillery because it meets the criteria of being owned by the distiller, manufactures and bottles all its products, and produces less than 50,000 cases a year.[7]
