Surf and sun. Boardwalks and bikinis. Beaches and bars. Welcome to San Diego, one of Southern California’s hippest and most fun cities. So, what’s it missing?

A distillery, of course! And that’s where 619 Distillery & Tasting Room is here to shake things up. The 619 Distillery would be San Diego’s first urban craft distillery, and it would also offer a tasting room, full restaurant, and bar. The venue would offer public tours through the distillery, and the adjacent tasting room would feature spirits, cocktails, and RTD beverages available for purchase. The restaurant will offer a dynamic seasonal menu inspired by local ingredients, and the bar will be the only one in San Diego to serve every craft spirit made by every craft distillery in Southern California. Plus, it’ll be located in the hip and trendy North Park neighborhood,

The masterminds behind this distillery are the creators of the award-winning Six One Nine Vodka, which is known for its premium handcrafted gluten-free vodka and signature all-natural flavor infusions. Launched in 2012, Six One Nine Vodka has won multiple gold medals, and now, they want to bring that same success to their distillery and tasting room.

They want to make the 619 Distillery & Tasting Room a community gathering place, and they plan to offer art events, cocktail classes, and summer BBQs. The tasting room and restaurant will be open from 11am-11pm on weekdays and 11am-2am on weekends. Plus, San Diego is a hot tourism destination to start with, with 34.9 visitors in 2016 who spent $10.4 billion. Add in also that in 2016, 69.8 million 9-liter cases of vodka were sold in the U.S., generating $5.8 billion in revenue for distillers, and you start to see this distillery might be onto something.

When you then consider that 80% of Americans prefer to shop and buy local...it might seal the deal for your desire to sip on one of those cocktails Six One Nine will be stirring up. This new San Diego distillery could provide just the spirited drink you were looking for.
