90 Days with Spirit Hound Distillers - Media Relations, Photography, Graphic Design
On Jan. 19, 2025, the TTB officially recognized American Single Malt Whisky as its own category — a historic milestone and the first new US whisky classification in over 50 years.
Following the designation, Spirit Hound Distillers engaged Turn It Up to leverage their authentic brand story and 13 year commitment to distilling award-winning American Single Malt Whisky. We used a multi-pronged marketing approach to position Spirit Hound and Colorado as leaders of the ASMW narrative on the regional and national stage. CLICK HERE for the case study.
