Our Story

Dirty Water Distillery was founded in 2014 with a simple idea: create something different. What started as a passion for experimenting with unique flavors and distilling techniques quickly became one of Plymouth's most distinctive craft distilleries.

Founded by Pepi Avizonis , a physicist with a passion for creativity and innovation, Dirty Water became the first distillery to open in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Pepi spent years exploring the art of distilling, developing handcrafted spirits that stepped outside the traditional expectations of liquor.

From flavored vodkas to locally inspired gins and experimental whiskeys, Dirty Water was built on the belief that great spirits come from curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to try something new.

At the heart of the operation are two custom-built stills, handcrafted by Jesse Lupo of Trident Welding in Maine. The 200-gallon production still, affectionately named "Dr. Evil," and its smaller 10-gallon counterpart, "Mini Me," have played an important role in bringing Dirty Water's unique creations to life.

Today, Dirty Water Distillery enters an exciting new chapter under the ownership of Jim Bandera

With a deep appreciation for the foundation Pepi established, Jim is committed to preserving the creativity, craftsmanship, and originality that have defined Dirty Water since the beginning, while bringing fresh ideas and new opportunities to the business.

Located in Plymouth's historic Cordage Park, Dirty Water continues to be a place where people can come together, discover handcrafted spirits, enjoy locally brewed beer, and experience something different.

While ownership has changed, the heart of Dirty Water remains the same: a passion for creating, experimenting, and bringing people together.
