Seventy Eight C Spirits, Inc. is a micro distillery headquartered in Raleigh, NC. Seventy Eight C Spirits, Inc. was founded by Donald McIntyre and Jared Sargent; both chemical industry veterans who aspired to establish a distillery that combined their scientific knowledge with their passion for craft spirits. Their objective is to implement a scientific approach in the manufacturing of craft spirits whenever possible. The boiling point of pure ethanol, 78°C, inspired the distillery's name.
The mission is to produce delicious spirits that are pleasing to the senses, using only the highest quality ingredients. The initial offering is a limoncello, which delivers a slightly sweet, fresh lemony taste. Jalapeño limoncello will be the second product, introducing a unique flavor by incorporating a sweet lemony liquor with a dose of savory heat on the finish. A Blood Orangecello is currently in development as a seasonal item.
