The well-known slushy bar, Luscious Nectar prepares to take
on the transformation to become a new distillery. The popular bar prepares to turn
in their unique slushy’s in for all new liquor and become Old Town Distillery.
Luscious has been a big part of the nightlife in Old Town.
According to Catlynn McLaughlin Luscious has always been a fun place to hang
out and meet new people.
“It is a really cool bar, every time I go in there their are
very chill people that like to have fun,” said McLaughlin.
She believes that it will be a good business plan for the
distillery to come out with new liquor since one of Luscious’ charms is their
unique and sweet flavored drinks.
“It (getting new liquor) would be good for them because they
already have a lot of their own shots so it would be good for them to come out
with their own liquor,” said McLaughlin.
Due to recent coverage of the change, Luscious has lost a
lot of business because people think that they are already closed, but they and
their avid goers are hoping for the bar goers to find them again once they reopen.
“I think that their business is definitely go to go back up
when the new distillery opens because it’s a new name and remodel and people
always want to check out new places here in Ft. Co,” said McLaughlin.
According to Nate Bell, an employee of Luscious Nectar for
three-years this is going to be a complete makeover for the bar.
“We are already starting the renovation, but the new
distillery is going to have a more Victorian feel to it and there is going to
be a craft ‘satellite’ tasting room, although we will be keeping our late night
Dj,” said Bell.
The goal is to have the distillery take over and all
renovations to be done within a week of closing the current bar.
“The plan is to have a soft opening for the new distillery.
They plan to turn it around pretty quick and have the distillery to open a week
after closing,” said Bell.
