The Trick To Vodka Is All In The Blend With American Liquor Co
You probably know Chris Montana’s name in connection with Du Nord Craft Spirits and the fact that there wasn’t a single trouble from last year that did not darken the door of his distillery. From COVID closure and making hand sanitiser, to the riots and the flames that engulfed Du Nord.
But even while assessing the wreckage of his business, it was not on himself where his attentions lay but rather his community and the other makers and businesses around him.
In what was left of his warehouse space, Montana set up an impromptu food bank and conducted a fund-raising drive to help other businesses in the area owned by people of colour.
And that desire to focus on those around him has continued as he has taken up the role of Master Blender with a new vodka brand American Liquor Co.
We talk to Montana about expert distillers, grains, blends and the sort of Vodka cocktails you should be making.
