ABOUT THIS DISTILLERY

Historic Mill Space That Makes Massachusetts Whiskey

Murr-ma Distilling Company operates out of the historic Keystone Mill on Pleasant Street in Easthampton, Massachusetts. Founded by Matt Danner and Steve Grover in 2015, this small-batch distillery emerged from two friends’ passion for creating handcrafted spirits using locally sourced ingredients. The operation sits in a converted mill space, where industrial history meets modern distillation techniques. They focus primarily on whiskey and gin production, with their flagship bourbon and rye whiskeys gaining recognition throughout western Massachusetts. The distillery takes its name from a combination of the founders’ backgrounds and their commitment to the local community. Since opening, they’ve built a reputation for quality spirits and educational experiences that showcase the craft distilling process. The facility includes both production space and a tasting room where visitors can sample their growing portfolio of spirits.

WHAT SETS THEM APART

Local Grains From Massachusetts Farms

What sets Murr-ma apart is their commitment to using Massachusetts-grown grains whenever possible, working directly with local farmers to source corn and other ingredients. Their location in the restored Keystone Mill gives the operation an authentic industrial character that reflects the area’s manufacturing heritage. The distillery operates with a hands-on approach, with founders Matt and Steve personally involved in every aspect of production from mashing to bottling. They’ve also developed a unique aging process that takes advantage of New England’s dramatic temperature swings, which they believe accelerates the interaction between their spirits and the oak barrels.

THE VISITOR EXPERIENCE

Working Distillery Where Founders Lead Tours

You’ll step into a working distillery where the smell of fermenting grains and aging spirits fills the air. The tasting room overlooks the production floor, so you can watch the distilling process while sampling their offerings. Tours are intimate affairs, usually led by one of the founders or experienced staff members who can explain everything from grain selection to barrel aging. The space maintains the mill’s industrial feel with exposed beams and brick walls, creating an authentic atmosphere that feels more like visiting a working craft operation than a polished tourist attraction.

IS IT WORTH VISITING

Perfect For Spirits Enthusiasts Seeking Authenticity

This appeals most to spirits enthusiasts who appreciate small-batch production and want to understand the distilling process. You’ll get genuine education about craft distilling rather than a flashy tourist experience. The intimate scale means you’ll likely interact directly with the people making the spirits, which isn’t common at larger operations. If you’re looking for elaborate facilities or extensive food offerings, you might be disappointed. But for those interested in supporting local craft distillers and tasting spirits made with regional ingredients, it’s definitely worthwhile.

⚠️ VISITING TIPS

Call ahead or check their website before visiting, as hours can vary seasonally and they sometimes close for private events. The mill building can be a bit tricky to find the first time, so look for the Pleasant Street entrance and follow signs to the distillery. Parking is available on-site but limited. If you’re interested in their production process, try to visit on weekdays when they’re more likely to be actively distilling. Ask about their barrel aging program if you’re a whiskey enthusiast – they’re happy to discuss their approach to New England aging conditions.
