Peach Street Distillers is a privately owned, self-proclaimed “artisanal,” professional brewery and distillery in Palisade, Colorado. Established in November 2005 by Rory Donovan with Bill Graham and David Thibodeau, co-founders of Ska Brewing Company in Durango, Colorado, Peach Street was established in Palisade to utilize the area’s favorable growing conditions for various types of fruits. The company is best known for their Goat Vodka and Jackelope Gin, and a tasting room that holds regular bar hours, staying open until 12 a.m. on weekends. == History == Three good friends- Rory, Bill and Dave- began the company with years of professional brewing and distilling experience between them.〔http://www.peachstreetdistillers.com/durango%20post/durango-post-8-31-08.html〕 They chose Palisade, located at 4,700 feet elevation with its cool nights during the growing season, yet desert conditions and intense sunlight, for their liquor-making hub. Such a setting allows the fruit they grow to ripen with a high concentration of sugars.〔http://www.peachstreetdistillers.com/about.htm〕 The distillery uses a custom-made German copper pot to create their vodka, the Goat, with sweet corn from Olathe, Colorado, a neighboring town. Head distiller Davy Lindig makes bourbon from Olathe sweet corn, fruit brandies from area pears, plums and peaches; and grappas in partnership with Debeque Canyon Winery, from Gewürztraminer and Viognier grapes.〔http://www.denvermagazine.com/September-2010/Taste-Trotting-Palisade/〕 Camaraderie in the industry is intended to boost sales and in the hope of making Colorado the epicenter of microdistilleries. Some companies have shared sales staff in the past, and Thibodeau expressed hope that such enterprises will experience the same success as the craft brewing industry; of collaborative success, he said, “the same rising tide floats all boats.”〔http://www.whiskymerchants.co.uk/#/peach-street/4533730821〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peach Street Distillers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
