Mark Fine on booze, Ogden's Own Distillery, and celebrating who you are

Hungry for More : an Epicurean's Dilemma

President of Ogden's Own Distillery, Mark Fine takes us through the sometimes complex world of the beverage industry. With 30 years of experience, including the Director of Beverage for Norwegian Cruise Line, Mark knows spirits and more importantly, knows how to sell them. He says it was a no brainer when the opportunity at Ogden's came up, mostly because of the company, but also because of its surroundings and history. In the late 1800's Ogden was the place for gamblers, those who liked bootleg liquor, a place for brothels and opium dens. When the distillery opened, it was only the second in Utah after prohibition. The brands and their labels are historic, fun and funny, but they're also supportive in their own way. Mark says Ogden's Own Distillery is about not only highlighting everyone, the unique and the interesting, but celebrating exactly who people are.
