Oak & Eden Partnership
Spinelli Angus Ranch is excited to announce the collaboration with Oak & Eden Finished Whiskey. We approached Jamie Gildenzopf the CoFounder, to ask what the distillery does with their spent grain byproduct. A few conversations about what we would use it for and we were set with a grain provider.
Oak & Eden is located about sixteen miles from the Ranch and has slowly become one of our regular Saturday night spots. They have amazing handcrafted cocktails, live music and the some of the purest tasting whiskey we have ever had. If you want a more customizable experience you can even create your one of a kind bottle of whiskey. They also are constantly having events, tastings in Downtown Bridgeport. If you are looking for a great time look no further than taking a trip up to the flagship. The staff truly are some of the greatest people you will meet. Oak & Eden have an amazing product and they have been such an amazing blessing for their contribution to the ranch. We can’t thank them enough for this partnership and the new found friendship.
Implementing spent grain into our herds diet has great benefits like essential vitamins & minerals, great source of fiber + protein, and great for putting on weight. Trust us we aren’t the only ones that are loving what Oak & Eden is producing. The cows are impressed with the new addition to their diet and it definitely shows. We are proud of the herd’s success with the spent grain allowing them to grow strong and fill out their frames. This partnership it allows us to to stand firm in our mission to be more environmentally conscious. With offloading the spent grain to us it allows for less environmental waste and impact. To take it off Jamie’s hands is great win win win scenario for everyone. Oak & Eden gets the byproduct taken care of. We get spent grain and an excuse to taste test some great whiskey upon arrival for the pick up.
We are so grateful for this opportunity to partner up with Oak & Eden. We believe in the product they produce and it’s amazing to have that feeling reciprocated. To the many years to come Spinelli Angus Ranch is thrilled for whats next!
Cheers!
