Endless West is a San Francisco based startup using science to create its own blend of spirits. Its first product, Glyph, is the first aged-style spirit made using flavor and aroma molecules extracted from more efficient sources in nature. Glyph is made without aging or barreling β which means significantly less wood, water and land is used in its production process. Founded in 2015 by scientists Alec Lee and Mardonn Chua, and sommelier, Josh Decolongon, the company is headquartered in San Francisco and has raised nearly $33 million in total funding to date.
