By September 26, 2024Connecticut, Top News

Brescome Barton, in collaboration with Tilted Bottles Wine, Beer & More in West Hartford, hosted a private barrel tasting of the Woodinville Whiskey Co. line on Aug. 15. Spearheaded by Phuong Thy Villaysane, Moët Hennessy Portfolio Manager, Brescome Barton, with Eric Jacoby, General Manager, Tilted Bottles Wine, Beer & More, the event featured special guest Josh Prete, Northeast Sales Manager, Woodinville Whiskey Co. He led guests through an educational tasting of the Washington-based distillery’s whiskeys, including its exclusive Private Select Straight Bourbon Whiskey and its newest addition, Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished with Toasted Applewood Staves. Crafted in Washington by best friends Orlin Sorensen and Brett Carlile, Woodinville Whiskey Co. uses locally grown grains, pot-distilled by hand in single batches and aged in charred oak barrels, to make its award-winning line of whiskeys, developed under the tutelage of the late Dave Pickerell, an industry icon known for his role in the craft distilling movement.
