Author Zachary Lamothe will discuss his new book, Distilled in Boston: A History & Guide with Cocktail Recipes, in this ZOOM webinar. 

About The Book: Boston has a long history with distilled spirits, from Colonial times through Prohibition. More recently, there has been a resurgence in the craft distilling industry from Cape Ann to Cape Cod. Regional standouts such as Boston Harbor Distillery, Bully Boy Distillers and Short Path Distillery have opened up a new era, with more than a dozen new businesses now on the scene. The ingredients, production processes and marketing techniques are as varied as the beverages themselves. Join author Zack Lamothe as he reveals the backstory of the popular craft spirit movement in the greater Boston area.

About The Author: Zachary Lamothe is the author of Connecticut Lore: Strange, Off Kilter and Full of Surprises and More Connecticut Lore: Guidebook to 82 Strange Locations, as well as A History Lover's Guide to the South Shore and Classic Restaurants of Boston, both from The History Press. He graduated from Boston University with a degree in American studies and holds a master's degree from Southern Connecticut State University in education. He also runs the website Backyard Road Trips and cohosts the Backyard Road Trips podcast. He lives in Plymouth, Massachusetts, with his wife, Jaclyn, three sons, one dog and one cat.
