Meet the Team – Mark Vierthaler
Born and raised in Dodge City, Kansas, Mark has been in the spirits industry for 14 years, distilling eight of them, and our head distiller for the past three.
“The stories Whiskey Del Bac tells through our whiskeys resonate,” Mark said. “We work to simultaneously honor the culinary and libationary history of Tucson while helping forge new ground with our uniquely Sonoran-inspired whiskeys. To be able to work with such an amazing team – from production to sales to marketing to leadership to front of house to our amazing customers – is a huge honor.”
Mark oversees the day-to-day operations, recipe development, distillation, aging, and blending processes for the distillery. He’s also proud to serve on the Board of Directors for @craftspiritsus – the only registered national nonprofit trade group representing the U.S. craft spirits industry, as well as volunteering for their Education, Guild, and Government Affairs Committees. Mark’s always happy to chat about all things distilling, so if you see him around town – say hi!
