Bentley Gillman

Forager. Distiller. Fermentation guru. Bentley’s love for flavor and distilling developed in an unexpected place — foraging in the forests of Wisconsin and Minnesota. Over the years, his foraging led to countless flavor and fermentation experiments at home. Through delicious triumphs and some funky failures, he honed his skills and found his passion in the beautiful process of fermentation. As he developed these passions, he worked with Dan and the fantastic crew at the Strip Club Meat & Fish and earned degrees in Philosophy and Religious Studies at the University of Minnesota. Now he applies his skills to crafting excellent spirits and liqueurs for Tattersall. And his drive for experimentation is a major force behind the R&D still. He’s grateful to everyone who taught him along the way, those who tried his craziest experiments and to the Earth that gives so freely.
