About Watch Hill Whiskey Company

In 2022, co-owners Tommy Craggs and Josh Howes opened Watch Hill Proper, the world’s largest and most prestigious American whiskey bar, where every detail was thoughtfully designed to reflect their uncompromising vision. In their relentless search for the perfect American whiskey to meet their exacting standards, they sampled and passed over many remarkable whiskies. Then, they discovered “the one”—an unmistakable expression of craftsmanship without the need for fabricated history or contrived heritage. Watch Hill Whiskey Company was born from that discovery, bringing an exceptional whiskey experience. For more information, visit Watch Hill Whiskey Company.
