Virginia Spirits Month

September 22, 2019 Corey Wright

It’s September again. It’s become a tradition around here for us to always have something to say around September. Not that we don’t always have something to say anyway but September is always special. Why September you may be asking yourself. Or maybe you’re not. Maybe if you’re someone that’s checking out a whiskey blog you have some idea that September is bourbon heritage month and that all around the country there are fun bourbon related activities going on.

Enjoy These Five Places In Virginia - Including Some to Celebrate Bourbon Heritage Month

September 6, 2016 Corey Wright

In honor of Bourbon heritage month and by merit of the fact that we've been touring around different places in the Virginia (mostly Central Virginia) the last month or two it seemed like as good a time as any to layout our five favorite places to visit in that state.

Whisky The New and the Old in Central Virginia (Visiting the VA Distillery Co.)

I’m sitting in a newly designed room in a picturesque little hollow whose only neighbor is the Jehovah’s Witness Kingdom Hall. Not the neighbors you would expect, necessarily, for a distillery but whisky itself has become a bit of a religion lately too.

Enough to keep from turning back

July 28, 2016 Corey Wright

If you find yourself on one of those steamy summer days in central Virginia there is a world of possibilities for things to do. As many already know there is a booming craft beer industry that has cropped up in the area. All you have to do is head out to Route 151 in Nelson County to go touring many of the local beer and wine options. However, maybe beer or wine aren’t exactly what you’re looking for. Or maybe you have a group of people with you and you’re trying to find a variety of activities that will keep everyone occupied. Just keep driving. Charlottesville is not too far away and their downtown mall, among other things, has something to offer as well.
