Lost Spirits is a distillery and technology company which produces whiskey and rum.[1][2][3] The company is notable for its scientific and experimental production techniques, and its cult following.[4][5][6][7][8]

The company is currently operating in the Arts District of Los Angeles.[9][10] However, it has traditionally operated out of facilities in Monterey County, California and Silicon Valley, California.[11][12]

In 2015 the company attracted media attention when it announced that its co-founder, Bryan Davis, had invented a new means of aging spirits. Davis' process was shown, using modern analytical chemistry, to replicate the chemical reactions which take place as spirits age in barrels.[13][14][15]

In 2015 Lost Spirits and Davis were presented the Global Master Award for innovation from the Spirits Business for the technical achievement.[16]
