About Letterpress Distilling

As a college art student, Skip Tognetti fell in love with an old printing press, which he used to handcraft his own graduation announcements. At the critically acclaimed Letterpress Distilling, he now creates libations from locally sourced grains to make drinks that evoke the same handcrafted quality.

To make Letterpress's signature vodka, he distills Washington-grown wheat and two-row barley into smooth liquor that lingers with just a hint of vanilla. That vodka, in turn, is a primary ingredient in his limoncello, hailed by Clare Gordon of The Stranger as "the best limoncello I've ever tasted." Lemons and Washington blackberry honey contribute the spirit's remaining flavors, which pay homage to the limoncello that was a fixture of Skip's family dinners back in Rome.
