OUR STORY

Deep Carolina Roots and a Passion for Quality

Founded with Faith, Family and Hard Work

Founded with Faith, Family and Hard Work our principles, we have found our True North and poured our heart into our little distillery to watch it grow.

Nearly ten years ago we started with a small copper still, a recipe for shine and a guiding hand with more experience than the law allows. We are Craig and Meredith Amick, husband & wife, Owners & Distillers, Employees & Employers, and parents to Will, a young entrepreneur in his own right.

Faith. Family. Hard Work.

DEEP LOCAL ROOTS

Hollow Creek Distillery's roots run deep — ten generations deep.

But to tell the whole story, we’d have to go back to the early 1700’s when our great grandfather 9x’s removed was given a land grant by King George II for 150 acres underneath what would become Lake Murray, SC. Having traveled from Germany with nothing more than a strong name and solid work ethic, Conrad Emig (later Amick) started a new life on the fertile soils of SC.

The future of our legacy

Hollow Creek Distillery is the next chapter in our legacy.

Ever since, generations of Amick’s have been servants of the land and their community. From farmer to ferryman, father to son, our roots run deep.


When you visit Hollow Creek Distillery, you’ll likely meet our family hard at work in the production room, labeling bottles, packing boxes, or right behind the tasting bar. We’re proud of our heritage and community but prouder still of our distillery and the legacy we continue to build. Come on in for a visit. We’d love to introduce you to our spirits, but first here’s our team:

OUR VALUES

Pouring our pride and passion into every bottle we produce. Providing high quality, hand-crafted spirits distilled on Faith, Family, and Hard Work.

FAITH

Our faith runs deep and has seen us through good times and bad. You’ll always feel welcome, respected and cared for every time you visit.

Unlike bigger distilleries, we have been family owned and operated from the start. Board meetings happen daily around the dinner table. No corporate BS allowed.
