286: Whiskey Del Bac – Arizona Whiskey Born in the Sonoran Desert

We’re talking American Single Malt Whiskey in this week’s podcast featuring Whiskey Del Bac. So sit back, buckle in, and listen to the newest episode of the Bourbon Lens.

Mark Vierthaler, Head Distiller for Whiskey Del Bac, joins Bourbon Lens to talk Single Malt.  Whiskey Del Bac is known for its mesquite style of American Single Malt, but they have so much to offer for any fan of American Whiskey who is looking to explore what the Southwest has to offer. Founded in 2011, Whiskey Del Bac has really hit a stride with their releases including Dorado, Classic, Frontera, and their Distiller’s Cut American Single Malts.  We discuss each during this week’s episode and found a well-balanced portfolio with something for everyone.

About Whiskey Del Bac

Hamilton Distillers was born of a novel concept by former furniture producer and woodworker Stephen Paul. Paul observed the Velvet Mesquite, native to his home in Arizona’s Sonoran Desert, leftover from his woodworking and conceived to use this easily sourced, local wood to make a mesquited style of American Single Malt whiskey modeled after Scotch. In just over a decade, the team at Hamilton Distillers has captured the spirit and terroir of the region of Sonora, down to the name itself. “Del Bac” draws from both Spanish and O’odham, the language of the indigenous peoples of the Sonoran Desert in southern and central Arizona. Bac translates to “place where the river appears in the sand,” referencing where the distillery sits along the Santa Cruz River.

Whiskey Del Bac, a private family-owned and operated brand, was founded by father-daughter duo Stephen and Amanda Paul in 2011. Known for a unique mesquited American single malt whiskey, it produces a highly acclaimed portfolio of whiskeys made in Tucson, Arizona. Whiskey Del Bac exemplifies the desert of the southwest and native flavors of the region. Learn more at whiskeydelbac.com.
