New Distilling Workshops!
Introduction
For three years now, iStill has been hosting distilling workshops. Our goal was to educate distillers on our theories and still designs, and to train them in how to make top shelf whiskey, rum, vodka, and gin.
From the start onwards, the iStill courses were a great success. Participants rate our courses at a steady 9.7 out of 10. We are very proud to be the world’s best educational facility for (future) craft distillers!
Over the last years more and more students found their way to the iStill University. So much so, that we now educate around 200 distillers per year. For 2019 that number is expected to grow. So … here are new iStill Certified Distilling Workshops, now open for registration!

Setting up for the Australian Workshop!
We are currently giving a 4-day workshop on distilling in Tasmania, Australia. No less than 18 distillers joined! We had to turn down 4 applications, because the group – at 18 – is already very big. We’ll make up for that next year, when we plan to do another workshop here! For now … some pictures of us setting up, prior to the start of the actual workshop.

Just in Time!
Do you remember the new assembly hall we took into production yesterday? Here are a few new pictures … you can see we put it to good use immediately!
New iStill Assembly Hall!
Due to the growing worldwide demand for iStills, we are expanding. As of today, we added another assembly hall to our facilities. It offers 300 m2 of floor space and is 9 meters high. That’s over 3,200 feet square and 27 feet high. The hall will be refurbished a bit in the coming week and a half (water, heating, electricity), and will then serve to help build more iStills. Here are a few pictures:
