THE STORIES BEHIND
THE STILLS
The dedication that goes into craft liquor is undeniable. The people behind the scenes spend countless hours
perfecting their product from the grain they choose to their distilling process. Standing out from the crowd,
the following four distilleries bring something remarkable to the table.

2bar Spirits
No offense to the big-name distillers, but the 2bar boys prefer
to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. “Or, strap…” says
2bar Distiller Chris Lehmann. The Texas natives are still in the
building process after all. Founder Nathan Kaiser and his crew
bring a heap of southern charm to the barebones distillery on
the outskirts of SODO. Drop in for a taste from 2-6 p.m. any day
of the week.
Known For: Moonshine
Pizza Pairing: The Hawaiian and 2bar Moonshine, neat

Project V Distillery
& Sausage Company
With a great sense of humor, patience and pride, Mo Heck distills
some of the finest spirits around. Producing just five gallons at
a time, Woodinville’s Project V Distillery & Sausage Company is
about as small batch as it gets. “I know it’s ready when it tastes
right,” says Mo. “It tastes like heart and value and wheat.” She
sources wheat from her family’s fields, donates spent grain to a
neighboring pig farm, and sells the pork yields at her distillery.
Because, everything is better with bacon, right?
Known For: Chai-infused vodka that makes a stellar White Russian.
Pizza Pairing: Funghi Salsiccia and Single Silo Chai

Skip Tognetti, Letterpress Distilling creator, infuses his spirits with
childhood memories of summers in Italy. His relationship with
spirits began at age five, watching Roman townspeople trickle
into his grandfather’s liquor store for wine, limoncello, grappa and
amaretto. “For me, sharing these things was always about family
and community more than anything,” he says. Now he carries on the
tradition with his own shop in SODO. While he makes a top-notch,
twice-distilled vodka, one sip of Letterpress Limoncello will brighten
the gloomiest day. Be on the lookout for his amaro release.
Known For: Limoncello made with Washington blackberry honey and
lemon zest.
Pizza Pairing: The Original with The Boulevardier (equal parts
whiskey, sweet vermouth and Campari)

Sound Spirits Distillery
Distilling is truly a labor of love for Steven Stone. He spends his
days working full-time for Boeing and his evenings crafting small
batch booze. Perched on the edge of Elliott Bay, Steven and his
team masterfully concoct vodka, gin and liqueurs. But, it’s their
Scandinavian aquavit that has the nearby Nordic crowd captivated.
Known For: It’s Seattle’s first distillery since Prohibition.
Pizza Pairing: Extra Pepperoni with a Sazerac or Negroni

Washington’s burgeoning craft distillery community
is swiftly rivaling that of any other state, making
it difficult to decide which distilleries to check out
first. Enter, Local Craft Tours. Much more than a
booze cruise, the tour offers a unique perspective
on Seattle’s spirits scene while spotlighting the
best distilleries around.

Local Craft Tours founders Tara Fuller and Craig Krueger met
while bartending in California. But, they weren’t just slinging
drinks; they were creating cocktails using the finest spirits
they could find from local craft distilleries. After moving to
Seattle in 2006, they continued to network with local distillers
through their company Shake Bartenders.

Pro Tip: Hello, truffle popcorn!
One weekend while touring the Sonoma wine country, they
had an aha moment. “We were like, ‘We need to start a
distillery tour with all the things that are going on in Seattle!’”
Tara explains. “So we came home and I think we got our
business license that next week.” And lo, Seattle’s “speakeasy
on wheels” was born.
Tara and Craig pick up tour groups in a lux Mercedes Sprinter
five days a week, typically stopping for private tours at three
craft distilleries. One of their most popular stops is Fremont
Mischief. Full of whim and eccentricities, this distillery lures a
crowd with its oak-aged John Jacob rye whiskey, elaborate
architecture, and lively story telling.

In addition to their standard distillery tour, Local Craft Tours
can tailor stops around a preferred spirit or focus on the best
craft cocktail bars. Tara and Craig plan to offer a whiskeyfocused tour around November when many distilleries finish
aging their whiskeys.
“A unique thing about these tours is not necessarily learning
about how whiskey or vodka is made, but hearing the stories
behind all of the distilleries. For all of these distillers, it’s a
passion,” says Tara.

Our January seasonal pie is pure comfort. We
combine rosemary-roasted potatoes, marinated
chicken, red onions, mozzarella, kasseri, red pepper
flakes and fresh parsley on an olive oil base. It’s
perfect for warming up winter nights.
We team up with Wallingford’s Link Lab Artisan
Meats for their savory shiitake and sage pork
sausage. We play up the flavors with shiitake
mushrooms, roasted leeks, fresh mozzarella,
Parmesan and olive oil. Find it in February.
Aging Salumi’s finocchiona salami can take up to
three months, but it’s one that’s worth the wait. A
blend of ricotta, mozzarella and Fontina cheeses
with Mama Lil’s goat horn peppers, roasted fennel,
olive oil and fresh parsley highlight the spices in
this prized pork. Look for it in March.

By the Slice
Remember the first time you enjoyed Pagliacci pizza? For many it was
grabbing a slice at University, Broadway or Queen Anne - quick, convenient,
and oh so good.
A question we hear over and over at our other locations is, “Why don’t
you serve slices here?” We’ve been listening. Main Street in Old Bellevue
and Madison both opened with slice bars. Over the last year, we made
room for slices at our Kenmore, Lake City Way, and Bridle Trails locations.
Now two more locations offer pizza-by-the-slice in addition to whole
pies: Bellevue Square and Stone Way.
After a brief remodel of our Bellevue Square location this September,
guests are now greeted with a slice bar and counter service. The change
offers shoppers, moviegoers, business people, and out-of-towners a
quick dining option, but we still toss whole pies for those looking to
enjoy a meal at a more leisurely pace.
On a more grandiose scale, we expanded our Stone Way location. What
was once our spot with the least square footage has morphed into a
spacious delivery kitchen with dining room and slice bar. While still
delivering to Wallingford, Fremont and Green Lake, it now provides an
opportunity to dine out or grab a slice on the go.
These changes bring us back to our roots of pizza-by-the-slice. Going
forward, don’t be surprised if you see more slice bars appearing in our
other dining rooms.
