A Passion for Spirits.
A Commitment to Craft.
Founded in 2024, Soaked Oak was created to extend the reach in which founder James Spicer could serve the public with the craft he knows and loves. Inspired by a passion for whisky — particularly bourbon aged in soaked oak barrels — the name embodies the spirit of tradition, warmth, and authentic craftsmanship that defines every event we host.
With over 15 years of experience behind the bar, 5+ years of bar management expertise, and a certification as a Bourbon Steward through the Stave & Thief Society, James brings unparalleled knowledge, creativity, and attention to detail to every pour.
At Soaked Oak, our philosophy is simple: craft unforgettable experiences, honor authenticity, and ensure complete client satisfaction — every time.
James is a true artisan of hospitality, blending a love of balanced cocktails, expert whisky knowledge, and the joy of creating lively, welcoming party environments. Watching a guest light up after their first perfect sip — that’s what drives everything we do.
