About Flying Dutchman Spirits

Flying Dutchman Spirits’ never-ending search for vibrant and aromatic ingredients leads to truly unique flavor profiles in their craft spirits. Their Mediterraneo Gin replaces the pine flavor found in London dry gins with Mediterranean notes like rosemary, thyme and olive. Come aboard the Flying Dutchman and taste the rest of the world in their rum, vodka and blue agave.

Flying Dutchman Spirits is bringing globally influenced, award-winning craft spirits to the rolling hills of Eden Prairie, Minnesota. And now to you. They’re the first craft distillery in the city, and just like their namesake, they’re eternally searching for new tastes and flavors.

Founded by Brandon Thorton, Scott Kaldenberg and Jim Kaldenberg, Flying Dutchman Spirits holds more than one meaning for them. Each of the founders has worked as a private pilot, and they are all of Dutch descent. Coupling that with their love of craft spirits, Flying Dutchman was born in 2017. Soon after, the accolades started to pour in.
