About The Virginia Distillery Company
In 2011, after many years of building successful businesses in both the U.S. and Ireland, the late Dr. George G. Moore had the chance to combine his passions when he started the Virginia Distillery Company. Today, George’s wife, Angela Moore, their son, Gareth Moore, and his wife, Maggie Moore, have taken the helm to continue building George’s dream. “Have the courage of your convictions,” was a saying George often repeated to friends and family. His credo became our core principle and the name of our American Single Malt whisky line, Courage & Conviction. From the impeccable quality of the ingredients we source to the years spent perfecting our maturation process, The Virginia Distillery Company makes whisky the right way – never sacrificing the best for the easier, safer path.
