Joe Tappe at Broad Branch reached out to us recently about the opening of their distillery in downtown Winston-Salem, NC. The distillery is focused on whiskey, which we all know takes time, and are doing things right, which we know takes dedication and effort. As Joe put it, "each journey begins and ends at our distillery in an old tobacco warehouse on historic Trade St. right here in Forsyth County, NC - from mill to mash to barrel to bottle. The result of so much love and labor? Small batch, premium cut, meticulously crafted, superlative spirits for discerning drinkers who give a damn. Like you."
Their first expression is a historic revival of a Frank Williams recipe, a white whiskey with "rye spice, hops driven hints of floral and grapefruit citrus notes."
With their location in the thriving neighborhood along Trade Street and North Carolina's penchant for exceptional whiskey, we expect good things for Broad Branch. We're excited to see what they come out with next!
