The Perlick family and their ancestors have been farming the land in Northern Wisconsin since the 1920's. It is a small county with about 17,000 people and two stop lights. They farm over 2,000 acres growing a wide variety of plants and grains. Scott and the family discussed what they would be able to do with the grain on their farm and making something of it. The began to distill alcohol and figure it out as they went. The research from what they wanted to persue came from visiting breweries and distilleries that were not too far away. Initially for Perlick the focus and mindset has been on making vodka. "If we can't make it with making vodka, we shouldn't be in this business", Scott proclaimed. Their vodka has been a huge hit statewide. They also produce a five year single malt and an incredible maple vodka.

In this episode we are joined by Andrew Yingst, Cory Ruggiero and Rachel Rougeaux-Testerman of The Inn at Grace Winery.

The bed and breakfast got it all started in the late 1980's. Grace Le Vines left the property to Christopher Le Vines who established all of the cottages, the winery and vineyard. He changed the name to honor his sister. The grapes were planted in 2007. Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Fran, Chardonnay, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc make up the varietals that were set into the limestone soil. Today the property boasts being a winery, restaurant, boutique hotel, tasting room and event space. The wines that are being produced are delicious and complex. They honor the history and the future of this hidden gem nestled in Delaware County, Pennsylvania.
