About the Distillery

Stark Spirits Distillery is located in the Northwest District of Pasadena in The Business Park of Pasadena, just a few blocks from the famous Rose Bowl. It is a nationally certified craft distillery operating in a compact production space. The small scale makes the visit intimate and requires planning, as tours and tastings are offered by advance booking. The close urban setting and focus on craftsmanship make the site an interesting stop for local whiskey enthusiasts.

Visit the Distillery

Stark Spirits offers tours and tastings on fixed days, Friday through Sunday, between 14:00 and 19:00. Visitors book via an online form, and if another time is needed, you can request it through the form's 'Notes' field; staff try to accommodate alternative requests according to the schedule. Due to the limited space, larger groups (more than four people) are asked to choose late afternoon or early evening to ensure a good experience.

The stated opening hours are tours and tastings scheduled Friday–Sunday from 14:00 to 19:00.

Philosophy and Craft

The distillery is nationally certified as a craft distillery and is operated in a small, artisanal setup. The limited production size shapes both operations and the guest experience, where flexibility in booking and planning is an integral part of the service. This approach prioritizes craftsmanship and adaptation to both staff and guest schedules.
