Whisky Advocate: Foley Family’s Minden Mill Releases Its First Three Whiskeys

When entrepreneur Bill Foley purchased the mothballed Bently Heritage Distillery in Nevada last May, the news was received with great interest in the whiskey world. His California-based Foley Family Wines company was already a prominent player in the wine business, with 19 wineries in the U.S. and eight others around the world, but this deal marked his first serious expansion into spirits.

Since then, Foley has made a series of other whisky moves—including being named importer for Two Stacks Irish whiskey and Loch Lomond Scotch, and the release of an impressive Texas whiskey. But things were quiet at the Nevada distillery, which was renamed Minden Mill shortly after the acquisition. Now that silence has broken, with the debut of the first Minden Mill whiskeys. The magazine’s website has the full story.
