Waldorf University Fine Spirits Management Project

write minimum 700 words based on the instructions below

For this project choose a distillery (anywhere in the world) that is not a major brand (e.g., may not be Smirnoff, Tanqueray, Jack Daniels, etc.). Next, have the distillery approved by either Dr. Back or Mr. Nutta to ensure that it’s an acceptable choice and not already “taken” by another student. Upon approval of your choice, your paper should address the following:

• History and background
  • When and by whom founded
  • Current ownership
  • Master Distiller(s)
  • Geographic location
  • Traditionally part of local culture or new addition
  • Local characteristics associated with flavor profile. For example, base ingredients/botanicals, water source, etc.
• The distillery
  • Type(s) of spirit produced
  • Main ingredients used
  • Source of ingredients/water
  • Approximate price range
  • Where sold (e.g., locally only, statewide, nationally, internationally, etc.)
  • Open to the public?
    • If so, details of public/tourist facilities
  • Production
    • Distilling techniques used (e.g., pot still, continuous still, gin head, etc.)?
    • Are the spirits aged? If so, what type of vessel(s) and for how long?
    • Annual production (if available)
    • Description of the sprits families that the products belong to (e.g., contemporary vodka, Scotch whisky, etc.).
    • Brands and/or type(s) produced (e.g., Papa’s Pilar 7 Blonde Rum, Papa’s Pilar 24 Dark Rum)?
  • Anything else that you feel would be of interest
