Phase I of the project was to restore the former historic Vermont American factory building into a new, fully immersive distillery experience. The facility was to house all the bourbon production for the new Angel’s Envy brand as well as allow up to 200,000 visitors a year to learn about the brand. Phase 2 includes the addition of guest experience and event space, including five new tasting rooms, a bar, and expanded retail area.
