It will house the exclusive members club known as “Never Ordinary Bourbon Society” [the “Society” or “NO-BS”].
According to a press release, the new Tap Root Hospitality Group will become the parent company of Sapphire Creek Winery, The Orchid House Winery and the exclusive members club.
The Orchid House Winery will reopen March 30. Dining hours start 5 p.m. Thursday to Saturday. Call 330-562-9245 for dinner reservations.
Selling ThornCreek Winery was part of a succession plan for owner and President David Thorn.
“After spending years growing my business, I am pleased to put this winery in the hands of someone who will care for it and nurture it the way I have done,” Thorn said.
