Devin Mills talks with Ryan Hembree, Founder & Owner (along with his wife Julie) of Skip Rock Distillers, producers of some serious award winning Liqueurs (and award-winning Rums, Gins & Whiskeys)!
Liqueurs are an often forgotten product, but Ryan helps Devin shed some light on to what is a time-honored tradition, and how Ryan sort of fell into the Liqueur business – to great success! Their Raspberry Liqueur won a Gold Medal & Best-In-Class at the ADI Awards this year (2019), as well as “Worlds Best Fruit Liqueur” at the World Liqueur Awards (2019). And their famous Nocino (Walnut Liqueur) also won a Gold Medal at the World Liqueur Awards (2019).
Skip Rock Distillers is located in Snohomish, Washington (North of Seattle), and the distillery offers tours and has a tasting room.
This is a awesome conversation about the ins-n-outs of Liqueuers, and how time really can be the secret ingredient!
Check out all the details below.
Cheers!

Devin Mills talks with Itsara Ounnarath, President of White Tiger Distillery, producers of the ONLY rice-based whisky in the United States!
Itsara talks about his family’s history in coming from Laos and how that has inspired what they produce at his distillery. Located in Forest Hill, Maryland (outside of Baltimore), the distillery offers tours and has a tasting room.
This is a very cool conversation about the history of booze in Laos, the traditions of who used to make the liquor, and how rice as an ingredient can be very different. (This interview was recorded via the web a number of weeks ago, so please excuse some of the audio tweaks on Itsara’s portion.)
Check out all the details below.
Cheers!
