From Folklore to Distillery: The Birth Of Siren Spirits
The legend of the siren has long haunted the shores of Lake Michigan, captivating sailors and locals with her mysterious melodies. In the late 1800s, stories of a siren’s song luring fishermen to dangerous waters became a symbol of both beauty and danger, drawing thrill-seekers from near and far. As the legend grew, so did the fascination with the mystical allure of the lake. It was this very folklore that inspired a group of close friends, each passionate about craft distilling, to create a brand that blended the enchantment of the lake with the artistry of small-batch spirits.
In 2015, they founded Siren Spirits Distillery near the shores of Lake Michigan, with a mission to craft high-quality, locally sourced spirits that echoed the region’s rich history. With a deep respect for both the environment and the community, the team at Siren Spirits set out to create a distillery where visitors could experience the magic of the lake with every sip. From our vodka to our whiskey, each bottle tells a story of the siren’s haunting beauty and the natural bounty of the surrounding region. Today, Siren Spirits continues to be a destination for those seeking both premium craft spirits and a taste of local folklore.
