If a person wishes to legally distill alcohol, they have two options. The first option is to obtain a Federal Distilled Spirits Permit. This is the permit that industry giants like Jack Daniels and Makers Mark distilleries possess, which makes it legal for them to distill and distribute to the public. As one might imagine, this permit is very difficult to get.
In short, unless an individual is opening a distillery with the intention of selling their product in liquor stores, don’t even bother looking into getting a distilled spirits permit; it’s way too expensive and complicated for a home distiller to obtain. Instead pursue a fuel alcohol permit (which we’ll describe next).
