The Brand
Napa Valley Distillery
Napa, CA
Est. 2009
Napa Valley Distillery operates on one basic principle: Make it Different! For the Hartunians, handcrafted is much more than a buzzword. Arthur, a self-described 'cocktail geek,' and Lusine, the master taster and marketer, try to be innovative and old-world at the same time, because their definition of craft or artisanal is one who is willing to experiment. They collaborate with local winemakers to source barrels for aging, mixing and matching to create unique flavor profiles, and draw on their Napa Valley location by sourcing local mint and infusing their vodka and gin with Napa Valley sauvignon blanc.
View brand profile →The Founder's Note
Arthur and Lusine Hartunian had been working together in financial services in southern California when, in 2009, they decided to pursue their passion and start a distillery in Napa Valley, reasoning nobody else was doing what they wanted to do there at the time. Their first product was a Meyer Lemon liqueur that started on their kitchen table, where Lusine and their three kids, Alexander, Isabella, and Christian, hand-peeled 3,000 organic lemons, taking care to remove the pits. That liqueur went on to win the platinum medal at the World Spirits Competition less than a month after launch.
How It's Made
Copper stills and stainless steel tanks, with custom flavor profiles built through barrel selection, including aging spirits in local winemakers' used wine and port barrels.
Tasting Notes
Exquisite served chilled after a fine meal in an antique cordial glass, but versatile enough for Margaritas, Whiskey Sours, Ramos Fizzes, Gin and Tonics, Palomas, Pimm's Cups, Sidecars, or a splash in sparkling wine before a meal.
