Black Draft Distillery (Martinsburg, WV) WF0051
What started as a horse farm is now the home of whiskey, fascinating flavors of vodka, and barns and a patio filled with music, cocktails, and a good number of soon-to-be friends.
Join me in the smoking room of the Black Draft Distillery as I chat with founder Glen Price about the evolution of his horse farm into an agritourism site and the home of fun weekend parties targeted to empty-nesters. I also find myself face to face with my own family's potential whiskey legacy, and we chat about the unique angle Glen takes on his tours of the distillery. Plus, we'll hear an ingenious spiritous ingredient Black Draft is making for your iced tea.
Enjoy this drive down I-81, but don't blink. There isn't a lot of West Virginia here in the eastern panhandle. You don't want to miss it.
