For Dan Oskey, bartending started as a college gig and quickly transformed to lifelong passion. He set the bar at the Strip Club Meat & Fish creating everything from scratch. Tonics, bitters, mixers -- you name it, he made it. The Twin Cities took notice: Minneapolis Eater named him the 2013 Best Bartender. At Hola Arepa he took it to the next level. Seeking speed without sacrificing quality or presentation, he started pre bottling cocktails. No more long waits for quality cocktails. Meanwhile, Dan found the time to help start Joia All Natural Soda and Easy & Oskey Bitters Kits. Now he's ready to push the limits yet again, this time with spirits and craft cocktails for Tattersall.

Jon Kreidler is a financial wizard by trade with an MBA from the University of Chicago, Jon has always had a love for whiskey and gin. After 15 years of analyzing other companies, he was ready to put his skills to work on his own. While vacationing with his wife, Michelle, Jon was charmed by the West Coast craft distillery boom. The wheels began to turn. He enrolled in the Michigan State Distilling School, reconnected with Dan, his childhood friend, and Tattersall was born. In many ways, Tattersall is the result of his Jon's total dedication and drive -- not to mention his killer palate. When he's not at the distillery, you'll find him spending time with his family, working on projects around the house or enjoying the seasons.
