Las Vegas Distillery
1. Las Vegas Distillery is the first distillery in the history of Nevada after prohibition and the only craft spirits manufacturer in Las Vegas Valley. All the spirits are made in house.
2. Las Vegas Distillery had its first legal commercial distillation on April 1, 2011, 100 years after founding the City of Las Vegas. Of course in this 100 years there were many "not so legal" distillations in the Valley.
3. The Distillery is a great local story about passion for craft and "Never Give Up!" attitude of a first generation Hungarian American Family, born in the West part of Romania, Transylvania. Yes, that Transylvania... So please do not come after the Sun goes down, because lot of bloodsucking going on and the distillery is full with vampires.
4. George wrote the Nevada Craft Distillery Bill draft, which was signed by Governor Sandoval on June 10th, 2013 and put down the basics of this unique industry in Nevada.
5. Nevada's first legally made and sold spirit was Las Vegas Distillery Nevada Vodka, distilled from white soft winter wheat grown by Winnemucca Farms in North Nevada.
6. Sid and George's friendship and loyalty is legendary.
7. The Distillery has an annual Barrel Head Award, which honors good friends.
8. George is Nevada's First Bourbon Maker. The Nevada 150 Bourbon Whiskey was released in 2014, when Nevada celebrated the 150th anniversary of joining the Union in 1864.
9. Las Vegas Distillery is located in the beautiful Henderson, around 15-20 minutes from the Strip.
