Our History
Ambix Spirits started production April 2019. For our first three years we produced our spirits on nights and weekends at Essential Spiritsusing their Stupfler Alambic still. Dave and Andrea taught us a a great deal and got us on our feet and we’ll be forever grateful. Our Sebastopol distillery started operations in late 2022.
Our own orchard, which we began planting in 2019, will become our primary source of apples in a few years, and for now is providing an ever increasing amount of fruit for specialty batches.
David & Zoe
David & Zoe are the team behind Ambix Spirits. They met in 1989 and Zoe lit the fuse when she bought David a homebrewing kit the next year as a birthday gift. They became very active in the emerging homebrewing community winning awards, getting certified as judges, and organizing a major beer competition that continues to this day. Both pursued advanced science degrees which comes in handy as they challenge assumptions, apply experimental techniques and are always striving to make something new and different.
