Becky Harris
Becky is the President and serves as the Chief Distiller at Catoctin Creek and has focused on creating the finest Virginia Rye Whisky from grain to glass. Catoctin Creek Distillery was started early in the wave of craft distilleries. They started in 2009 with a tiny 100-gallon still and a single full-time employee which happened to be Becky.
