KOVAL Distillery at Open House Chicago

From its origins as a residential lot to its evolution into a cornerstone of Chicago’s distilling scene, 4241 N. Ravenswood tells a story of industrial progress and family heritage. The building transitioned from a Pacific Flush Tank Co. machine shop in 1928 to its current form after several expansions between 1953 and 1963. Today, it serves as the home of KOVAL Distillery, featuring a state-of-the-art tasting room, warehouse, and classroom, a transformation completed after a major 2019 renovation. The distillery floor will be open to guests, with team members available to answer questions, offer tastings, and help navigate the self-guided tour. Staff will assist with guest flow and verify IDs for all spirit tastings.
