The events of 2020 have brought big changes to the adult beverage industry, transforming how, where and what Americans are drinking. According to a report from market analysis firm IWSR, consumers tend to favor quality over quantity and gravitate more towards local products and ready-to-drink beverages.

And according to the Craft Spirits Data Project, the U.S. was home to more than 2,000 craft distilleries by the end of 2019, an 11 percent growth year over year. That means consumers have a lot of choice when it comes to premium, American-made spirits.

10Best wanted to find the best craft and small-batch spirits producers – family-owned distilleries, grain-to-glass operations or distillers using only the best local ingredients in their products. We recruited a panel of craft spirits experts including spirits journalists and judges to help us nominate 20 companies in each of the following categories: whiskey, rum, vodka, gin, brandy, specialty spirits, new distilleries, craft mixers and canned cocktails.

For the past four weeks, our readers have been voting for their favorites, and the results are in.
