Welcome back to Evening from OOLA Distillery. Now finally I think we can try the cocktails that have been sitting in front of us. I have a Smoky Black Manhattan with a little orange zest and I will tell you something. Strong, yes, but good. What do you have there?
It's called Corpse Reviver Nr 2. Apparently it's a medical miracle. It's a Gin drink and there's a little bit of lemon juice in there I also detect some Absinthe. Or if somebody might have told you there was Absinthe in it.
You know OOLA was named after the owners’ German Shepherd. It was one of the first distilleries to open in Seattle post-prohibition. They're award-winning urban distillery. They use sustainable practices in the production of all their spirits.
I absolutely believe that because I have seen that they do all of their fermenting, distilling and bottling on-site, right here. And speaking of bottling we got to help out. What are you doing? I'm trying to put the labels on. The machine puts a label on the bottle. Very nice. Bottled perfectly every time.
