Before getting started we must note, for Charles, that he was referring to a Tyler at Ogden’s Own, but it’s actually Tim. Apologies Tim.
Now that is corrected, Episode 186 we had the absolute joy of being joined by the founder and creator of Utah’s Spirit Trail Guide, Charles Johnson. We couldn’t have said it better than his press release in describing what the Utah Spirit Trail guide accomplishes, Over the past 10 months I have been writing, designing, planning, and coordinating with all of the area distillers/owners in the construction of Utah’s Spirit Trail. In just a few short days I will be launching a whole new way for Utahn’s, and visitors to our state, to explore these amazing destinations and meet with the people that are actively shaping the culture of distilling in Utah.
Charles has spent months building relationships with local distillers and creating an interactive guide for visitors and locals to discover Utah’s distilleries. What is the Utah’s Spirit Trail Guide? You can pick it up for $5 at local distillers as well as on the website, Utah Spirit Trail, and inside has 12 distilleries (with more to come each year). After you visit each of those, you get your passport/guide stamped and at the end you mail it back to Charles and you get one of the beautiful glasses in the picture (on the right). What is the purpose of this? Well, everyone has a story. Utah distillers have some of the best and this gives a chance for people to chat with them and find out their origins.
With Utah distilleries from Eden, to Park City, to South Salt Lake it also gives you a good road trip through our beautiful Wasatch Front. We look forward to seeing the other distilleries jump on board! You can follow the Utah Spirit Trail on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter!
