Episode 594: The Awesome Story of The Distillery of Modern Art: Seth Watson, Atlanta, GA

In this episode of the Restaurant Owners Uncorked podcast, Wil Brawley talks with Seth Watson, the founder of Distillery of Modern Art in Atlanta. Seth shares his entrepreneurial journey, from launching a production and event design business out of a garage to eventually building a one-of-a-kind distillery that blends spirits, art, and community. He opens up about why he left his first business, how he navigated outdated Georgia alcohol laws, and why he built a distillery with multiple revenue streams: a cocktail bar, an art gallery, an event space, and a production facility. Seth also discusses the lessons he's learned about ego, iteration, and surrounding himself with smart people, while offering fascinating insights into bourbon, gin, and the modern spirits landscape.Key Takeaways: From Garage to 400+ Events a Year: Seth's first business in event production started in a garage and grew into a full-scale company handling hundreds of large-scale events annually. Exit Fueled by Values Misalignment: After 17 years and increasing tension with a 50/50 partner, Seth exited the business to preserve his sanity and avoid letting resentment fester. Control Matters: Seth learned the hard way that 50/50 partnerships often don't work. He now maintains control in any business he leads. Birth of a Unique Concept: Distillery of Modern Art combines a distillery, cocktail bar, art gallery, and event space—all designed around Seth's love for whiskey and modern art. Navigating Georgia's Arcane Liquor Laws: Seth had to build his distillery concept while lobbying against outdated post-Prohibition laws that limited direct-to-consumer sales. Whiskey Meets Art: The subjectivity of both whiskey and art inspired the distillery's brand and mission: create a sensory and aesthetic experience, not just a product. Producer for Other Brands: In addition to his own spirits, Seth's team produces over 40 products for 18 other brands across the U.S., offering a more personal and flexible alternative to large manufacturers like MGP. No Ego in Product Development: Seth scrapped his original gin recipe when taste tests failed—not because he didn't like it, but because customers didn't. Craft Over Hype: Seth values drinkability and authenticity over branding. He prefers bottles like Michter's over hyped-up names like Pappy Van Winkle. Committed to Community: From supporting small farmers to featuring local artists (commission-free), Seth backs up his community-first philosophy with action. Owner Mentality, Not Exit Mentality: Like the Yingling family, Seth isn't chasing a fast exit. He wants to build a sustainable, generational business—possibly passing it on to his children one day.

The First South Korean Single Malt, or, An Eagle, a Unicorn, and a Tiger Walk Into a Bar Ki One (formerly known as Three Societies) was founded in 2020 with a simple goal: be the first Korean single malt distillery and set a benchmark for what Korean single malt could be. Given the reaction to their releases, one can only say well done. They are the first Korean single malt on the market, with three core expressions (the Eagle, Unicorn, and Tiger) and special releases exploring different parts of their components or playing with finishes.  What could Korean single malt be? Nestled on the north face of the mountains 30 minutes from Seoul, this distillery gets no direct sunlight in the winter and can swing between -4C and 36C throughout the year. Bryan came from a brewing background, Andrew Shand from a distilling family. Together, they've set a Korean "profile" that hearkens back to their heritage while highlighting something synonymous with Korea: spice.  Make no mistake: whether at 6 months or 5 years, this is a spice-forward single malt, evoking kimchi and gochujang pepper alongside the classic single malt by which they were inspired.  As the first, they had to chart a path, and we get into an unusually detailed description of how taxation and regulation can lag behind industry growth and, if unchanged, hamper it. This was Bryan's first longform English interview for Ki One - I hope you enjoy!

They delve into personal experiences with Iron Fish Distillery in Michigan and St. Augustine Distillery in Florida, highlighting how these operations represent the soul of American craft whiskey.• Craft distilleries aren't just about size but about commitment to authentic processes, community engagement, and offering immersive visitor experiences• True craft distillers typically own and operate their stills, grow or locally source ingredients, and maintain independence from corporate ownership• Iron Fish Distillery exemplifies farm-based craft production, growing their own rye that becomes part of their distinctive whiskeys• The Mad Angler Manifesto showcases craft creativity with its unique seven-whiskey blend and balanced four-grain profile• St. Augustine Distillery demonstrates how craft operations often preserve historic buildings and create community gathering spaces• Small batch production allows craft distillers to take creative risks impossible for large producers• Regional climate differences create unique aging environments that contribute to distinctly local whiskey profiles• Many of today's craft distilleries could become tomorrow's heritage brands as they gain age and experienceVisit www.scotchiebourbonboys.com for merchandise including t-shirts and Glen Cairns.

This episode peels back the label to reveal what makes a genuine craft distillery and why these producers represent the soul of American whiskey innovation.Randy "The Whiskey Doc" joins Tiny to explore the distinction between authentic craft distillers and those merely wearing the craft label. Through their personal experiences at Iron Fish Distillery in northern Michigan and St. Augustine Distillery in Florida, they showcase how true craft operations are transforming communities while creating distinctive spirits.Iron Fish exemplifies farm-based distilling, where rye grown on-site becomes part of their whiskey, including their remarkable Mad Angler Manifesto—a seven-whiskey blend that defies convention with nearly equal parts corn, rye, barley, and wheat. Meanwhile, St. Augustine demonstrates how craft distilleries often preserve historical architecture, with their operation housed in a 1907 ice plant saved by twenty local families who banded together to create something meaningful.Beyond the romance lies practical realities that shape craft whiskey. Regional climate differences impact aging conditions, smaller production allows for creative risk-taking impossible at larger scales, and community integration means these distilleries become far more than just production facilities—they're destinations that celebrate local heritage while creating new traditions.Whether you're a whiskey enthusiast curious about the craft movement or someone who appreciates the stories behind your spirits, this conversation offers genuine insight into an industry where authenticity Add for SOFL If You Have GohstsSupport the showhttps://www.scotchybourbonboys.com The Scotchy bourbon Boys are #3 in Feedspots Top 60 whiskey podcasts in the world https://podcast.feedspot.com/whiskey_podcasts/

In this special tasting episode, we dive deep into Evan Williams Master Blend – a distillery-only treasure that brings together five different expressions including their coveted 23-year-old single barrel.The magic of this bourbon lies in its remarkable evolution. Beginning with gentle aromas of caramelized sugar, apple, and subtle floral notes, each sip takes you on a journey reminiscent of slowly caramelizing bananas – transforming from fruit-forward sweetness to rich, complex caramel. Most surprising is the extraordinary finish that lingers with a pleasant apple-like sweetness long after the sip is gone. Unlike many bourbons where the finish is merely an aftermath, here it becomes an entirely new experience worth savoring.What struck us most was how this 90-proof offering delivers complexity without overwhelming intensity. It's approachable yet sophisticated, making it perfect for sharing with special friends and family. Despite containing well-aged components, it remains reasonably priced (historically under $100), representing one of bourbon's best values if you're willing to make the pilgrimage to Louisville.Our conversation also explores the science behind bourbon production – from how barrel char affects hangovers to the importance of oak's natural properties in whiskey aging. We even touch on the fascinating details of how specific growing conditions of oak trees influence the final flavor profile.Ready to experience this special bourbon yourself?

Heritage, Grain, and Grit: Matt McKay Revives the London Distillery Company The London Distillery Company - TLDC - has, TLDR, had a rather rough two centuries. Two failed ventures, one in the early 1800s and one in the 2010s, the last ending in 2020 with a few dozen casks remaining, sitting in a warehouse for several years unloved.  Enter Matt McKay, a Whiskey Ring Podcast guest way back in Episode 70. Having recently departed Bimber and Dunphail Distilleries, Matt was looking for a project, something that would expand his already extensive whisky knowledge and give him a new challenge in the production space where he felt most at home. Those few dozen casks held some rye, a lot of single malt, and, more than anything, opportunities.  In his "distillery without walls," Matt is slowly and methodically rebuilding TLDC into a respectable company known for its own product (which remains quite limited but also nicely aged) and for blending. The Renascence was a release of their own stock, while the just-released Golden Union blends and celebrates English whisky from multiple distilleries into a harmonious expression.  Matt is unabashedly nerdy (seriously, listen to our previous episode, we got deep in the weeds), and he loves what he does. I can't wait to taste these releases and see what he does. Let's check back in a few years when they're farther down the runway....

La région de la Bouenza, dans le sud-ouest du Congo, s'industrialise un peu plus. Le président Denis Sassou-Nguesso vient d'officialiser la mise en service d'une distillerie à Moutela, au sud de Nkayi, la quatrième ville du Congo. Opérée par la Société agricole de raffinage industriel du sucre, filiale du groupe français Somdia, elle transformera les résidus de sucre, autrefois jetés, en alcool pour l'industrie. De notre correspondant à Brazzaville, La route qui mène à la distillerie de Moutela traverse d'immenses champs de canne à sucre. Après deux ans de construction, l'usine est inaugurée par les autorités. Le PDG du groupe Somdia, Olivier Parent, mène la visite. « Cette distillerie avec une capacité de production de six millions de litres peut produire six millions de litres d'alcool chaque année. Et, nous utilisons les co-produits issus de la sucrerie pour cela, explique le dirigeant. La sucrerie transforme la canne à sucre en sucre. Il y a des co-produits qu'on appelle la mélasse. Cette mélasse est transférée vers la distillerie : il y a une réaction de fermentation et de distillation pour créer de l'alcool à 96 degrés qui va être utilisé par les industriels à la fois pour de la boisson, de la pharmacie et de la cosmétique ». Les importations d'alcool, qui étaient nécessaires aux industriels au Congo, vont pouvoir s'arrêter, estime le groupe Somdia. La distillerie a nécessité un investissement de 17 milliards de francs CFA et une formation spécifique du personnel. « La distillerie à ce jour, côté exploitation, c'est une soixantaine de personnes qui vont travailler pendant la durée de la campagne, tout en sachant que l'on est couplés à la durée de la campagne sucrière. C'est donc une entreprise saisonnière qui va produire pendant cinq mois et aller en campagne de maintenance pendant sept », précise Serigne Bassirou Pouye, le directeur d'exploitation.

As the third oldest operating distillery in the world, with roots dating back to 1773, Buffalo Trace Distillery (as it's known today) has been honing its craft since Kentucky was a wild, untamed frontier and the United States was just an idea. In the centuries that followed, the Distillery changed hands numerous times, but one thing always remained constant; it was a homeplace for the creation of authentic American whiskey.At the turn of the millennium, the Distillery was amid a period of transformation once again and looked to its forebearers for inspiration. As a trailblazer in the industry, the distillation team chose to pay homage to W.L. Weller by setting aside some of the first whiskeys distilled in the new millennium for the sole purpose of creating this extraordinary innovation.A blend of vintage straight bourbon and wheat whiskeys distilled in 2000, 2003, 2005 and 2006, Weller Millennium highlights the impact that wheat has on the whiskey's flavor: the softness imparted by the wheat creates a smoother, sweeter, more approachable expression. By marrying these exceptional spirits together, the whiskeys further harmonize with each other, creating a cohesive, balanced final product that is greater than the sum of its parts.

This episode uncovers the remarkable transformation that happens when a quality wheated bourbon sits open for a year, developing complex layers of flavor that weren't present upon first pour.The Barton 1792 Distillery, established in 1879 by Thomas Moore, continues its tradition of excellence with their Sweet Wheat expression. At 91.2 proof, this bourbon replaces the traditional rye grain with wheat for a softer, more approachable profile while maintaining the distillery's signature character. Our side-by-side analysis reveals how oxygen exposure dramatically enhances this whiskey's profile over time.Our freshly-opened 2025 bottle immediately impressed with its long legs in the glass and a beautiful body that coated every corner of the mouth. The nose offered toasted notes with prominent vanilla, reminiscent of Brach's candy chews, eventually developing subtle cherry hints. On the palate, it delivered a remarkable cherry transition that one taster described as a "cherry flavored cigar" with a lengthy finish that earned it high marks in our rating system.Meanwhile, the 2023 bottle that had breathed for a year showed the magic that happens with patience. Its nose had transformed to showcase significant caramel development, while the taste featured an intense "momentary butterscotch" explosion that transitioned beautifully to cherry notes. Though its finish was shorter than the fresh bottle, its evolved complexity earned it equal overall points through different strengths.Whether you're new to wheated bourbons or a seasoned enthusiast, this episode offers valuable insights into how these spirits develop over time. The next time you crack a bottle of wheated bourbon, consider setting some aside to experience months later – you might be surprised by how dramatically it transforms.

This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief ventures into the high-altitude heart of the Colorado Rockies to sit down with Lenny Eckstein, founder and head distiller at Deerhammer Distillery in Buena Vista. What starts as a tasting becomes a deep dive into the wild spirit of craft whiskey done the mountain way. Lenny's approach is anything but conventional. He's built Deerhammer with an unapologetically bold attitude—where fermentation is open, barrels breathe mountain air, and flavor always comes first. The whiskey journey begins with Deerhammer Straight Rye, a unique take on the category with a mash bill of: 70% Elbon Rye, 20% Oats, and 10% Caramel Malt. This isn't your standard spicy rye. The oats lend a creamy, rounded mouthfeel, while the caramel malt brings in a sweet, roasted backbone that balances beautifully with the rye's punch. It's a sipper that surprises and satisfies. Next up is Deerhammer's American Single Malt, crafted from a robust malt-forward mash bill: 85% Pale Malt, 5% Chocolate Malt, 5% C120 Malt, and 5% C45 Malt. It's rich and complex, bursting with notes of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, dried fruits, and charred oak. This is single malt whiskey with soul—and a distinctly American edge. Finally, Big Chief and Lenny dig into Deerhammer's Four Grain Bourbon, where the frontier spirit of Colorado comes alive. The mash bill is 65% Ute Mountain Corn, 15% Red Wheat, 15% Oats, and 5% Roasted Barley. Smooth and creamy from the oats, softly spiced by the wheat, and given a bold twist with roasted barley, this is a bourbon that plays by its own rules—and wins. Throughout the episode, Lenny shares the origin story of Deerhammer—from homebrewing days in Brooklyn to pioneering bold whiskey in the Rockies. It's a tale of grit, grain, and chasing flavor through every season. So pour yourself something bold, and ride along on The Whiskey Trip.

 In today's episode, I got to catch up with recent AB Tech graduate Ryan Schrader, who just completed a whirlwind tour of craft distilleries and breweries in Pennsylvania, all while helping out his 93-year-old grandfather. Ryan and I tasted through a plethora of bottles he brought back—including unique rye whiskies, innovative cask-finished bourbons, and a standout unaged apple brandy. Our conversation dove deep into Pennsylvania's rye revival, the craft spirit scene, and his own whiskey-making journey at AB Tech. We also looked ahead to his upcoming sensory adventure in Ireland, where Ryan plans to tour iconic distilleries and hunt down rare single malts (with oats, of course) to expand his already impressive palate. Ryan graduated from AB Tech in May 2025 with a passion for craft distillation, whiskey, and lifelong learning. Originally from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, he brings a family history rich in whiskey lore, a home collection of rare decanters, and a keen curiosity about historic and emerging trends in the industry. His hands-on experience at AB Tech includes producing an Irish-style whiskey aged on maple wood—using homemade kiln-dried chunks from a tree in his own backyard. Ryan is always on the lookout for innovative flavors and is dedicated to exploring the global craft spirit community. “My love and passion for distillates has led me not only to become a lifelong learner and seek the associate's degree here at AB Tech, but also to find some pretty rare—well, pretty amazing—distilleries in Pennsylvania.” ~Ryan Schrader Today on Consuming the Craft:Pennsylvania is experiencing a craft spirits renaissance, particularly with rye whiskey, and features innovative distilleries such as Hidden Still Spirits (David E.), Stoll & Wolf, and Bluebird Distilling.Ryan discovered whiskey aged in unique casks, including those made from Umburana (a South American wood) and rum barrels, which added distinct cinnamon and sweet notes.Stoll & Wolf's unaged apple brandy at 107 proof was a standout for its creamy mouthfeel, delicate sweetness, and fresh apple aroma, despite being a clear spirit.Lancaster Brewing Company, with over 30 years of brewing experience, has recently added distilling to its repertoire, including a straight bourbon whiskey finished in its own Wee Heavy ale barrels.Many Pennsylvania craft distillers also provide top-notch food service, contributing to a full sensory experience.Ryan's capstone project involved crafting a traditional Irish whiskey with an innovative maple wood finish using kiln-dried, home-charred local maple.Upcoming plans for Ryan include a distillery-focused trip to Ireland, with visits to notable locations such as Middleton, Pierce Lyons (located in a historic church), and Kilbeggan, with a focus on tracking down oat-infused single malts, including Drumshanbo.The importance of glassware in tasting spirits was discussed, as different shapes bring out subtle variations in aroma and flavor.

This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief heads deep into the heart of Acadiana, where cypress trees whisper secrets and the whiskey runs as bold as the people who craft it. He sits down with Philip Mestayer, owner and distiller at Distillerie Acadian, a man on a mission to bottle the very soul of Louisiana. In the first half, they pour “Cajun's Cut”—a cask strength, single barrel, four grain bourbon that hits with heat, heritage, and plenty of Southern pride. As they sip, Philip shares how his grain choices and distilling philosophy pay tribute to the grit and spirit of Cajun country. Then the journey takes a creative turn with a blueberry mead cask-finished bourbon—a one-of-a-kind expression that blends deep Southern sweetness with rich complexity. It's a testament to Distillerie Acadian's bold approach to tradition. Philip also gives a glimpse into the future, revealing plans for a major expansion and a shift from pot still to a custom-built column still—a move designed to boost production and elevate the precision, consistency, and creativity of his spirits. If you love whiskey with character, culture, and a little Cajun swagger, this is one trip you don't want to miss. So pour a dram, saddle up, and join Big Chief for another spirited ride on the podcast where whiskey meets the road—The Whiskey Trip.

Jason drives up to the Skagit Valley to meet up with Shane "Showtime" Armstrong, Master Blender at Westland Distillery. The two walk around the warehouse tasting from a number of single casks and then head down to the Westland distillery in Seattle to spend some time in the sensory/blending room to share some of that experience with you, the listeners. This is an ultra geeky episode that gets into the nitty-gritty of what makes a single cask a single cask and what makes a cask of whisky better suited for a blending component.  ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!
