Marble Distilling Co. announces the first release of Hoover’s Revenge: Ragged Mountain Rye. Hoover’s Revenge, Marble’s label for whiskey and bourbon, will now join the other award-winning spirits in its portfolio. The first bottle release of Hoover’s will be held in conjunction with the opening of a second tasting room for Marble Distilling in downtown Aspen.
Hoover’s Revenge : Release Party
The bottle release party for Hoover’s Revenge: Ragged Mountain Rye will be Saturday, December 16 from 3-6 pm at Marble Distilling in Carbondale.
This initial single cask release, no more than 200 bottles, will be hand-signed by head distiller and co-founder, Connie Baker. Benefiting Roaring Fork Conservancy, the first bottle will be a silent auction item that includes a two-night stay at The Distillery Inn, a private tour and tasting with Baker and Marble giveaways. Live music and whiskey donuts from Sweet Coloradough will round out the release party.
“Hoover’s Revenge is in memory of our distillery dog, Hoover,” said Baker. “Ragged Mountain Rye is Marble Distilling’s proprietary blend of rye finished with soft white wheat and malted barley.”
Sourcing most of its grains from a local ranch less than one mile from the distillery, Marble sends its stillage back to the ranch for livestock feed and compost. In the future, Baker will release Fightin’ Whiskey and Backcountry Bourbon, which are fermented in open cyprus tanks and copper-pot distilled as well.
The Marble Bar – Aspen
Marble Distilling will open its second tasting room, The Marble Bar Aspen, in downtown Aspen (415 Dean Street) inside Hyatt Residence Club Grand Aspen.
“Opening soon, stay tuned for our official grand opening party,” commented Baker. “In a newly remodeled contemporary Colorado space, guests can enjoy craft cocktails, small bites, live music, retail sales and an Aspen Barrel Club for private barrel aging.”
Drink Sustainably.

With the motto, “Drink Sustainably,” Marble recaptures 100% of its process water. Reusing energy harvested from the distillation process to heat its facility, Marble saves more than four million gallons of water annually – enough energy to heat 20 homes. #liquidchange
