American Distilling Institute is proud to announce a new initiative that will support craft distilling by funding scientific research. The newly formed non-profit Distilling Research Grant (DRG) will be funded from an online auction house filled with donations from world class vendors. The funds will be dispersed to students and interns by an independent Advisory Committee composed of academics, distillers and scientists. The second annual online charity auction will run from September to November 2019.
