On this episode of the Food About Town podcast Jason Barrett and Luc Theirs from Black Button Distilling came over to the studio to talk about the first three years of the distillery and do a taste test of part of their product line.

Jason was one of my early guests on the podcast when we recorded in the empty space that is now the tasting room. It was great to catch up with him and learn about the ups and downs of starting a distillery from scratch.

We did a taste test of Black Button’s spirits including the original run of Wheat Vodka, the new 20 Plate Vodka, Citrus Gin, 4 Grain Bourbon, Bourbon Cream, Fast Ferry Fernet and the limited release of the Port finished Cask Strength Bourbon. Luc had some good thoughts on cocktail options and we went through some tasting notes and how the products developed.

If you haven’t checked out the Black Button Tasting Room on Railroad Street I’d highly recommend making the trip over for a tasting and a tour. It’s a great time to grab a bottle for the holidays so support a local business and grab some Black Button spirits!
