Waterpocket Distillery

Alan and Julia Scott opened Waterpocket Distillery in February 2017. Their motto is "OPEN WILD" and they suggest you "be prepared to be challenged and delighted." Julia combines her skills as a Ph.D. in biochemistry with Alan's creative genius to develop products by fermentation and distillation. Named for the Waterpocket Fold in Capitol Reef National Park, which the Scott’s consider a quintessential Utah landscape and a national treasure for the adventurer. It is this spirit that informs their product lineup. Through their research, they discovered a rich vein of pre-Prohibition herbal spirits, bitters and long lost liqueurs and they mine these recipes for flavor gold. In addition to rum and rums flavored with in-house roasted coffee and cocoa, they produce intensely flavored botanical liqueurs including Oread, a botanical spirit based on sage, sweet orange and star anise; the kümmel called Snow Angel, an old world cordial made with caraway, peppermint and fennel; or the Notom amaro, a bittersweet amaro digestive. $10 fee payable at event.
