Split Rock Distilling...

Maine is as much about the people as it is about the rugged wild outdoors. A trip there for me wouldn't be complete without checking in with the guys at Split Rock Distilling. They're  celebrating two years of hand crafting small batch, organic spirits. Couple that with an assortment of simple syrup flavors and drink mixes and life is pretty schweet.  

This time around, a bottle of bourbon did the trick and an assortment of syrup samples (thanks Matt).  Do yourself a favor and stop by if you get in (or around) Newcastle, ME. Tell'm The WaireHouse sent ya!

Split Rock Distilling...

On the last day of our Maine adventure, we finally visited Split Rock Distilling. Throughout the two weeks of our vacation, we had passed it occasionally...always with the intentions of stopping...but never quite having the most cooperative kiddos alongside. Upon arrival, we met co-owner Matt Page and felt immediately at home. If there's one thing that compels me to support a small business more than anything else...it's passion -- for the process, the work and the product. It's everywhere you look at Split Rock...and that smile on Matt's face says it all. I told him he was living my dream. When he told me they were hiring, I don't think he realized how much that warmed my insides. Cheers!
