TMK Creamery and Distillery makes a variety of cheese products and it uses the whey leftover from the process of making its products to create Cowcohol Vodka.
Touted as "one of the creamiest vodkas on the market," Cowcohol transforms a by-product that was once considered waste into a valuable product that creatively expands the company's offerings. Like TMK Creamery and Distillery, forward-thinking brands are innovatively repurposing by-products from their production processes to create entirely new products, contributing to a more sustainable, circular economy.
Northwest and Rocky Mountain Regional Food Business Center will be showcasing TMK Creamery and Distillery, along with other companies it has helped to launch and grow at the 2024 Winter Fancy Food Show’s NEW NOW NEXT.
