Soren Crabb - 1919 Distilling
Manage episode 289991913 series 2703270
Episode 35 – Legacy
Today we visit 1919 Distilling located in Tamaki Makarau rau, Aotearoa / New Zealand to speak with founder Soren Crabb
Soren’s early career comprised a navigator’s role with a cruise ship company, rotating 3 months on, 3 months off.
After an uneventful visit to Colorado during some well-earned leave, Soren encountered the notion of craft spirits for the first time. During the corresponding break a year later, Soren discovered that the number of distilleries, of all shapes and sizes, had ballooned from 3 to 33
With his interest piqued, and armed with a renewed sense of purpose, Soren took the decision to leave his job of 10 years, return to NZ, and embark on the epic adventure; craft spirits making.
He’s still very much a navigator at heart, plotting his course, looking ahead, at times going against the current, but always with a steady hand on the tiller.
4 years in, and the best is yet to come for one of Aotearoa's finest
Sit back, relax, and enjoy Soren describing his story and the 1919 Distilling narrative.
