The Virginia Distillery Company: A Whisky to Make Dad Proud

Just two years after drafting his master plan – a passion project combining his love for whisky and his adopted home of Virginia – Irish-American businessman Dr. George G. Moore passed away. The anticipated first batch never to touch his lips. Luckily for us, his son, Gareth, carried on the legacy and today the Virginia Distillery Company is making whisky more than it has historically been with interesting casking techniques and new traditions, all inspired by old-world methods.
