BUilding community

Yianni built his first still at age eleven from a sketch his grandfather made him. What followed was a moonshine fire, but also a lifelong exploration into the process of distilling and a passion that found its home in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

Mason Dixon Distillery was built in the shell of a 100-year old factory in downtown Gettysburg. It was restored beyond its former glory with original exposed brick and wood beams. It’s modeled after a German Beer hall with the intention of fostering genuine conversations—and it does it well.

Mason Dixon Distillery has quickly become a go-to spot in the Gettysburg community. Yianni’s an active community builder with the intention to create a thriving legacy in his wake.
