Founding Story
On a mission to cultivate artisanal spirits that symbolize the human experience of bonding and forming connections, Julian Peebles and Tory Brown founded Common Ground Spirits in 2020. They believe that finding a common ground with those around them is what adds substance and meaning to our lives. Their common ground is the belief that everybody, no matter race, religion, or gender identity should have equal opportunities in all aspects of life—and their approach to premium craft spirits embodies those values. Their hope is that you will join them on this journey and find common ground over a dram of artisanal Gin and Bourbon expressions.
