Podcasts about head distiller

This week we welcome Aaron Harris, Head Distiller at Green River to the Bourbon Showdown!  We talk about how he got into whiskey, how he became the head distiller at Green River, the history of the brand and how Green River has been has rocking and rolling across the whiskey landscape since its re-introduction in 2022.  It's a great conversation about good whiskey with the Whiskey Without Regrets on this week on the Bourbon Showdown Podcast. 

Great products start with an idea, and a lot of tinkering. Edison and his lightbulb. Jobs and Wozniak in their garage. The image is familiar—a lone inventor, obsessing over details, experimenting, failing, learning, and eventually discovering something great. South Louisiana has a pretty rich tradition of entrepreneurship and invention. Consider the crawfish boat, for instance. And, when you think about it, Cajun and Creole food in general can be likened to hare-brained contraptions. We’re constantly tinkering with ways to improve recipes to make them more efficient, cheaper or more flavorful — all without losing their essence. Gumbo There’s nothing more essential in Cajun cooking than the trinity — onion, bell pepper and celery, known around here as the Trinity, and depending on your bent toward Catholicism or sacrelige, even "The Holy Trinity." Dreux Barrah is Founder and Chief Chopping Officer at C’est Tout Dried Trinity Mix. Dreux’s path to business began in his home garden with an overabundance of bell peppers. He came up with drying vegetables as a way to preserve his surplus and created a dehydrated holy trinity. Through experimentation, Dreux perfected his process, even crafting custom equipment like his flour-toasting "Rouxster." Now, C’est Tout sells not just dehydrated vegetable mixes but also fully dried dish starters for classics like gumbo, jambalaya, and etouffee. Whiskey One thing Cajuns aren’t famous for is whiskey — apart from drinking it, we don’t really make it. That is, until Philip Mestayer came along. Philip is Co-Owner and Head Distiller at Distillerie Acadian, a small-batch distillery based in New Iberia. Philip started as a weekend hobbyist, distilling whiskey with his dad and brother. Their goal was ambitious—create Louisiana’s first bourbon, a spirit more associated with Kentucky Bluegrass than Cajun prairies. What began as a passion evolved into a business, but not without a whole lot of elbow grease. Philip designed and welded much of their initial distilling equipment himself, navigating complicated federal regulations, supply chain issues, and tricky logistics. Today, Distillerie Acadian offers seven unique spirits, from bourbon to handcrafted gin. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.

This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief rolls into the beating heart of the South—Atlanta, Georgia—where whiskey meets modern art in a way you've never seen before. He sits down with Matt Greif, the visionary Head Distiller at Distillery of Modern Art, a place where creativity flows as freely as the spirits. It's not just a distillery—it's an immersive experience. Picture this: a contemporary art gallery that champions local talent, wrapped in the aroma of oak barrels and filled with the hum of conversation and clinking glasses. Here, art and whiskey dance together in perfect harmony. Matt starts things off by pouring Big Chief a dram of their 100% corn whiskey—and what a first impression. On the nose, it's a bouquet of baking spices, honey cake, and dried flowers. A sip reveals a delicious tapestry of fruit compote, peanut brittle, and the warm savoriness of roasted corn. It's bold. It's elegant. It's a conversation in a glass. Then comes something truly rare—a corn whiskey finished in amburana barrels. Big Chief leans back, eyes wide. “Oh my,” he says, stunned by the complexity. It's the first finished corn whiskey he's ever tasted, and hands-down the best. With whispers of spice and soft sweetness, it's a breakfast whiskey worthy of sunrise sips and Sunday mornings. But the journey doesn't stop there. Matt brings out their bourbon, crafted from a mash bill of 67% white corn, 21% Abruzzi rye, and 12% malted barley. The flavor? A lush profile of dried and stewed orchard fruits, kissed with honey and a soft floral finish. It's the kind of pour you reach for before a perfectly seared steak—a whiskey that sets the tone. To close the show, they dive into the rye whiskey, a masterpiece made with 70% Abruzzi rye, 15% white corn, and 15% malted barley. Notes of crisp apple open the door, followed by baked cinnamon apple pie and the smooth richness of vanilla ice cream. It finishes with spearmint and spiced tea—a finale worthy of a standing ovation. Each pour, each bottle, each sip—uniquely Atlanta. This isn't just whiskey. It's Georgia's spirit, bottled with pride. This episode isn't just about tasting whiskey. It's about tasting culture, community, and craft. It's a love letter to a city that's rewriting the story of Southern spirits. This is The Whiskey Trip. Cheers, y'all.

Located along the Columbia River with majestic Mt. Hood as its backdrop, Hood River Distillers has been at its current bottling facility in Hood River since 1969. The company has expanded the plant for storage and made production line upgrades several times throughout the years. Although our core distribution began in the Pacific Northwest, we are currently producing close to one million cases per year, and distributing our products nationwide.HOOD RIVER DISTILLERS NAMES CAITLIN BARTLEMAY MASTER DISTILLERHood River Distillers, celebrating its 90th anniversary as the Pacific Northwest's largest and oldest distillery, is proud to announce the promotion of Caitlin Bartlemay to Master Distiller.Bartlemay joined Clear Creek Distillery in 2010 as a logistics coordinator and worked her way through the ranks to distiller. In 2014, Clear Creek was acquired by Hood River Distillers, joining the two oldest operating distilleries in Oregon, and returning Hood River Distillers to its original roots of creating fruit brandies. Bartlemay was named Head Distiller in 2021 and now oversees production of some twenty different distillates including McCarthy's Oregon Single Malt, the 1st American Single Malt; the award-winning Timberline Vodka; and the renowned Clear Creek brandies and eaux de vie.Bartlemay grew up as a hard-working wheat rancher in Eastern Oregon. Her father started a winery when she was in middle school, and she became fascinated by the science of fermentation. She studied Food Science and Technology at Oregon State University  earning her bachelor's degree in 2010. During her last semester of college, Bartlemay sent letters to every distillery across the Pacific Northwest  (at that time there were only 12) inquiring about job opportunities. Steve McCarthy, owner of Clear Creek Distillery, never told her to stop calling, so she didn't. She started work there the week after graduation.“Caitlin's vigilant commitment to excellence in every facet of her job is one of the qualities that has made her such an exceptional member of our team,” said David Ballew, President and CEO, Hood River Distillers. “Her passion for quality and craftsmanship is evident in each product that she touches. It's only fitting that as we celebrate our 90th anniversary, we recognize Caitlin for her leadership in helping Hood River Distillers and its brands continue their heritage of quality in the Pacific Northwest.”“It has been a thrill to be a part of the Clear Creek/Hood River Distillers team and to have had the opportunity to share so many wonderful brands with our customers,” said Bartlemay. “The history of distillation at both Clear Creek Distillery and Hood River Distillers is one that combines pioneering personalities, exceptional products, and phenomenal teamwork. Whether we are continuing the legacy of the first American Single Malt, bottling spirits distilled from the bounty of the Pacific Northwest or creating new custom flavors to celebrate innovation in the whiskey category, I'm proud to lead this next generation of distillers.”

You might think that having created beloved brands like Hendricks and Sailor Jerry, Steven Grasse would easily feel justified resting on his laurels. Instead, he sought out land in one of the most remote areas of New Hampshire, where he, with the assistance of his Head Distiller, Matt Power, created Tamworth Distilling. Known for their choice of the unusual and the truly bizarre, Grasse has used what he terms as ‘creative grenades' to push the brand's sense of enchantment and mysticism. But are one-of-a-kind releases enough in the present climate?We talk to Grasse and Power about the capacity of marketing, what makes a great spirit and what it means to distil in isolation. For more information about Tamworth Distilling, go to https://tamworthdistilling.com/

Alright guys I got a great story for y'all. Today we chatted with Josh with Ranger Creek Distilling. They are based in San Antonio Texas, they are also a brewery. We dipped into a couple samples, and talked of process and backstory. Lets get into it, but first a word from our sponsors Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3 https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Patreon.com/the_whiskeyshaman SAn antonio's Brewstillery Ranger Creek is a combined brewery/distillery proudly located in San Antonio, TX.

Grain-to-glass spirits made in small batches using Texas ingredients. RANGER CREEK .36 TEXAS STRAIGHT BOURBON .36 Texas Straight Bourbon is our flagship whiskey, handcrafted in small batches, aged in traditional large oak casks and matured under the Texas sun. It's an award-winning sipping bourbon that's also cocktail friendly. Originally crafted by our Co-Founder and Head Distiller emeritus, TJ Miller, each batch follows our grain-to-glass philosophy. Texas corn is milled, mashed, fermented, and our whiskey is distilled and aged at our San Antonio distillery, That same traditional process is carried on today by our current head distiller, Josh Gardner, and assistant distiller Tim Crofton. RANGER CREEK .36 TEXAS Cask Strength This is Texas Bourbon in all its grandeur. Directly out of the barrel. Uncut. Unfiltered. Our .36 Texas Cask Strength Bourbon is a rare release, using only a few barrels hand-selected by our head distiller. Handcrafted at our San Antonio distillery, aged and matured in the Texas heat, this whiskey is a unique and bold expression with Texas terroir. The finish is smooth. The flavor is bold. The craftsmanship is uncompromising. RANGER CREEK .44 TEXAS RYE Ranger Creek .44 Texas Rye Whiskey is made from 100% malted rye and matured in our used .36 Texas Straight Bourbon barrels. The process highlights the complexity of the rye grain, resulting in a spirit-forward whiskey. It pours a rich gold with a nose of cinnamon, mint and toffee. At 94 proof, the taste is strong but mellow with notes of clove and spice. The taste ultimately gives way to a clean, warming finish with lingering notes of fresh bread. True and authentic to our brand, .44 Texas Rye is a premium whiskey made from grain to glass in our hometown of San Antonio, Texas. Enjoy it neat or on the rocks. It also works great in a classic Old Fashioned or Manhattan cocktail. RANGER CREEK RUM This original rum was inspired by the positive response to our limited small-batch release. Made with the finest molasses and twice distilled in copper pots, this rum offers a smooth yet complex flavor profile. Our approach to crafting spirits is forged in authenticity and the desire to create products Texans are proud to call their own. Cheers!

Cheers,Scott and JakeBourbon Lens   About Whiskey Del Bac Hamilton Distillers was born of a novel concept by former furniture producer and woodworker Stephen Paul. Paul observed the Velvet Mesquite, native to his home in Arizona's Sonoran Desert, leftover from his woodworking and conceived to use this easily sourced, local wood to make a mesquited style of American Single Malt whiskey modeled after Scotch. In just over a decade, the team at Hamilton Distillers has captured the spirit and terroir of the region of Sonora, down to the name itself. “Del Bac” draws from both Spanish and O'odham, the language of the indigenous peoples of the Sonoran Desert in southern and central Arizona. Bac translates to “place where the river appears in the sand,” referencing where the distillery sits along the Santa Cruz River. Whiskey Del Bac, a private family-owned and operated brand, was founded by father-daughter duo Stephen and Amanda Paul in 2011. Known for a unique mesquited American single malt whiskey, it produces a highly acclaimed portfolio of whiskeys made in Tucson, Arizona. Whiskey Del Bac exemplifies the desert of the southwest and native flavors of the region. Learn more at whiskeydelbac.com.

Welcome back today we have The Master Yoda Whiskey Somm himself. This was a great conversation and flowed very well. Hope you enjoy it . Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3 Z.SmithWhiskeyandmixology Pateron.com/the_whiskeyshaman Daniel Whittington is the founder of Whisky Marketing School. He's also the Chancellor at Wizard Academy, co-owner of Crowded Barrel Whiskey Co, co-founder of The Whiskey Vault and Whiskey Tribe, founding member of the Texas Whiskey Association and President Emeritus of the Texas Whiskey Association. With Crowded Barrel Whiskey Co, he was the first to create a blended whiskey using only Texas distilleries and the first to release a Texas Craft focused Independent Bottling series. Also, WSET II and EWA Scotch Diploma Graduate and Instructor as well as Executive Bourbon Steward and instructor. He also plays music sometimes. Daniel Whittington is our Approved Course Provider in Austin, Texas. He teaches EWA courses on the campus of Wizard Academy and Whisky Marketing School.  Tell us a bit about yourself and your role in the industry. I'm the Chancellor of Wizard Academy, a business school for entrepreneurs. In 2015, we founded Whisky Marketing School to train and educate whisky sommeliers. In 2016, I co-founded what became the two largest whisky focused YouTube channels: the Whisky Vault and the Whiskey Tribe. In 2018 I co-founded Crowded Barrel Whiskey Company, the world's first crowd sourced whiskey distillery where I eventually operated as Head Distiller and Head Blender until October 2023. In that capacity, I also helped start the Texas Whiskey Association and served as its third President. In 2022, I reached out to both Stave and Thief and Edinburgh Whisky Academy to partner with them in offering their courses at Wizard Academy. How did you get into spirit education?   I began studying wine and sprits when living in California in the early 2000's. It eventually led me to the whisky industry where I found a spirit I truly loved. I studied under various programs like WSET and smaller localized certifications before I ended up at Wizard Academy in 2013. I tend to study and analyze anything I find interesting, and Whisky was a rabbit hole that just never ended. And because teaching is one of my core drivers, I started finding small ways to share the knowledge and information I was learning. After two years at Wizard Academy, I realized that the whisky industry could benefit from a whisky education program with our focus on communications, marketing, and public speaking. And that's what led me down this current path. What do you love about teaching?  Teaching is a gift. First, I love having the honor and privilege of opening doors and shining the light on new and interesting things for students. I love watching their love and passion grow with knowledge and support. I love seeing what students go out into the world and do with what they learn. But I've also found that you don't truly understand something until you try to teach it. I've learned more about whisky in the last 8 years by teaching it than I ever did by simply studying it on my own. It took head knowledge and transformed it to a deeper level of understanding. What excites you most about EWA? Edinburgh Whisky Academy has done a truly wonderful job of making courses on whisky that are both challenging, highly in depth, and at the same time accessible and practical. They are one of the best in the world at understanding how to make information meaningful beyond facts and data and taking it into the realm of practical knowledge and true understanding.

Steve McCarthy, owner of Clear Creek Distillery, never told her to stop calling, so she didn't. She started work there the week after graduation.

Originally founded in 1885 by J.W. McCulloch, Green River Distilling Co. (DSP-KY-10) is the 10th oldest licensed distillery in Kentucky. The brand quickly became synonymous with quality and regarded as some of the finest bourbon from Kentucky. Known as "the Whiskey Without Regrets," the brand enjoys a long, rich history as the official medicinal whiskey of the U.S. Marine Hospital and has been referenced as the most expensive whiskey ever sold - 20 barrels were once traded for an interest in a Colorado gold mine before a distillery fire and prohibition relegated the brand to history. Reestablished in 2022, Green River Distilling Co. is a proud citizen of Owensboro, Kentucky and serves as the westernmost outpost of the Kentucky Bourbon TrailTM. Built off classic mash bills, Green River has a growing portfolio of whiskeys that have all been created onsite offering a smooth and welcoming taste profile to the consumer, a true testament to simplicity and quality going hand-in-hand. Green River is part of Bardstown Bourbon Company, a top 10 distiller in the U.S. For more information, visit greenriverwhiskey.com.

Cheers,Scott and JakeBourbon Lens   About Beverly Spirits: Beverly Spirits crafts an exceptional sipping experience with award-winning American whiskey. Founded by Andrew Borenzweig, an entrepreneur whose background is in the whiskey industry, Beverly Spirits is his vision to create a new style of American whiskey rooted in an ethos of effortless luxury inspired by the lifestyle of his hometown of Los Angeles. Our signature blends are designed by Founder Andrew Borenzweig and Master Blender Murphy Quint to perfect the balance between the bold, spicy flavor of rye, and the rich feel of bourbon. Each batch is artisanally crafted at Cedar Ridge Distillery in Swisher, Iowa, using proprietary recipes comprised of straight rye and straight bourbon whiskeys hand selected from Iowa and Indiana. Andrew partnered with Cedar Ridge Distillery to create these signature blends, admiring the family-owned distillery's legacy, product, and most importantly, people, cultivating a relationship based on a shared passion and commitment to quality. Working closely with Murphy Quint, Cedar Ridge's Head Distiller, they spent years refining their recipe to craft a signature profile that is bold and complex yet inviting and smooth. They undertook a rigorous recipe development process leading to a celebratory conclusion in Barrel Shed #7 at Cedar Ridge on an Iowa summer day in 2021. After exhaustive tastings, crafting blend after blend by hand, evaluating each at cask strength, then at different proofs, they finalized their original recipe, The Beverly High Rye, and their barrel strength expression, The Beverly Reserve. For more information on Beverly Spirits, head over to the Beverly Spirits' website and product page. Beverly Spirits can ship to 43 states (excluding MI, UT, MA, SD, AK, HI). The Beverly Reserve is available at select retailers, bars, restaurants and hotels in California, Tennessee and New York.

If you're from Lancaster, PA you've seen the Distlefink, or Thistle Finch, bird on the hex signs surrounding the Amish Country. They used the English translation to keep with the heritage in the area. We learned a lot about them and totally enjoyed our conversation. We encourage you to make a journey to visit them and Arvin will be glad to show you around. He brought with him two styles of their rye whiskey, which was perfect for Kevin and Dave.

If you lived in New Orleans between 1953 and 2021, you might remember Baker Maid Fruitcake. It was made here, and in its earlier years was hugely popular. But tastes change. Somewhere along the line fruitcake became relegated mostly to the holidays.  In 2009, when Greg Sorensen took over his family business as its 4th generation co-owner, he reasoned if they're going to make cakes for special occasions, why make a cake people eat once a year? Every day is someone's birthday. Why not make birthday cake? That simple decision – along with a few others that pivoted the bakery toward other everyday items – has transformed Baker Maid. Today they're a wholesale business that supplies layer cakes, cupcakes, and petit fours to grocery stores across most of the eastern half of the US. The company has a staff of 70 here in New Orleans churning out cakes. On a typical workday, 20-30 of those folks are cake decorators. Here's another great New Orleans story. Luka Cutura grew up on the Northshore. His dad was a Croation immigrant who went into oyster farming, and following in his father's shrimp-boot footsteps Luka got his commercial captain's boat license right out of high school. That meant he was licensed to carry passengers. Luka started doing swamp tours  for a company called Cajun Encounters. Now, Cajun Encounters is owned by Jeff Rogers. In 2016 Jeff and his wife Mary Anna decided to open a distillery and call it Seven Three Distilling, after the 73 neighborhoods of New Orleans. One of Jeff's boat captains, Luka, had spent his childhood summers in Croatia where he'd learned to brew his Croatian family's traditional Balkans fruit brandy and wine. With a few courses at the American Distilling Institute to get up to professional speed, Luka hung up his boat captain's hat and became the Head Distiller at Seven Three Distilling. Today, under Luka's leadership, Seven Three Distilling makes award-winning gin, vodka, rum, and a bourbon that's so popular they literally can't keep up with demand. When politicians, economists and pundits are fond of telling us, “The key to growing the national economy is manufacturing.” they're typically thinking of things like aircraft, automobiles, steel, electronics, and clothing. But because this is New Orleans, we do things differently. We're manufacturing birthday cakes and bourbon. Baker Maid Products and Seven Three Distilling company names might not make it into national politicians' speeches or onto economists' charts, but their contributions to the local economy are not insignificant. Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at NOLA Pizza in the NOLA Brewing Taproom.

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief chats with Phil Brandon, Founder and Head Distiller, of Rock Town Distillery . This craft distillery located in the heart of downtown Little Rock, Arkansas produces some great whiskey that has never been done before. Phil takes the Big Man on a journey through his distilling story while also introducing him to unique mash bills that make this distillery stand out. Brandon's whiskey trip has taken him from the big hardwoods of Arkansas so that he understands where his barrels will come from in the future, to the farms of Arkansas, so he knows the hard work of the farmers who grow his grains. In the first half Big Chief and Brandon start with the Arkansas Bourbon which has a mash bill of 82% corn, 9% wheat, 9% malted barley - right up the big man's palate. The second expression they taste is an Arkansas Rice Bbourbon. Arkansas is the number one state for rice production. The rice gives it an extra sweetness. The last expression of the first half is an Arkansas Single Malt. In the second half Phil introduces Mike to their Rock Town Column Still Collection. This collaboration with Bardstown Bourbon Company will help the company expand their reach across America. They sip on the small batch and then a toasted French Oak expression – a toasted, wheated bourbon to be exact! This ride on The Whiskey Trip highlights David Pickerel's legacy of craft distilleries he helped create across the American landscape. Cheers!

Lauren Patz, Head Distiller for Redwood Empire Whiskey, joins us this week to tell us why you need their "Lost Monarch" on your next trip to a National Park! Why this pairing works:  This whiskey is an homage to John Muir, father of the National Park system, and each bottling is named for a living Redwood tree. This blend of rye and bourbon has the perfect balance of sweetness and spice and pairs perfectly with the Japanese art of 'Tree Bathing,' or going into the woods and observing the majesty of a tree. Alternate Pairing: S'mores! The vanilla, baking spice, caramel & maple syrup flavors of this whiskey will compliment the graham cracker, marshmallow, and chocolatey goodness of a s'more. What makes this Whiskey Special: The "best of both worlds" choice for those who just can't decide between rye or bourbon. The perfect balance of sweetness and spice. Named after the world's largest coastal Redwood, the bottle art pays tribute to John Muir, father of the National Parks Redwood Empire plants a tree for every bottle sold!

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief traveled West to Houston, Texas to visit Yellow Rose Distilling and their Head Distiller, Michael Langan. Yellow Rose is known for their Outlaw Bourbon that has a 100 % Yellow Dent Corn Mash bill. The whiskey has changed a lot in the past 5 years since the big man first tasted it. It's gained that outlaw spice that he was looking for with its name. In the first half, Big Chief and Michael start with a sample of their Outlaw Bourbon that is still a few years from being released.  At two years and barrel strength, it surprised Big Chief. In the second half Michael treats Big Chief to a special pour from a Crowded Barrel blend for The Texas Whiskey Festival that includes their Outlaw Bourbon. This blend was made up of 3.5 yr. Old Bourbon from San Luis spirits, 2 yr. old Bourbon from Shire Distilling and 4 yr. old Bourbon from Yellow Rose Distilling. At 116.1 proof this is a big, bold, beautiful Texas whiskey. This ride on The Whiskey Trip shows how a distillery can change over time and also how their whiskey can come of age. Go back and re-visit those distilleries that weren't quite ready for your palate in the past. Cheers!

You know them, you love them...that's right, I'm talking about FEW Spirits. Join me and Sydney Jones, Head Distiller of FEW Spirits, as we chat about her new role, her incredible past, and of course...the whiskey!  I

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief is in the Big Easy - New Orleans, Louisiana - visiting Seven Three  Distilling. The Big man chats with Head Distiller, Luka Cutura, about this young distillery named for the 73 neighborhoods of New Orleans. They discuss Luka's Croatian heritage of distilling and the bustling city's rebirth after Katrina. Big Chief can see the future is bright for Luka and is excited to see what's ahead for Seven Three Distilling. In the first half, Big Chief and Luka start out with By-Water Bourbon, a wheated bourbon with a unique mashbill of 64% corn, 26 % wheat and 10% malted wheat. They then move to the Irish Channel whiskey which is a blend of a 10-year Irish whiskey and an American whiskey finished in a cognac barrel. Big Chief gets Belgian waffles and whipped cream. In the second half, they sip on a barrel-aged Gentilly Gin and then finish the show with a By-Water Four Grain Bourbon that will be released next week. This ride on The Whiskey Trip once again features a craft distillery that also happens to be in a city with an amazing whiskey history. If you're in New Orleans you definitely need to take the tour. You won't regret it. Cheers!

Cheers,Scott and JakeBourbon Lens     About Smooth Ambler: In the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia, Smooth Ambler is a craft distiller of artisan whiskies. Smooth Ambler has a family of quality wheated and rye bourbons that includes handcrafted whiskies 100% distilled and aged in West Virginia and curated blends sourced from the finest all-American whiskies. Founded in 2009 with the simple goal of producing the best whiskey possible, the brand has been part of Pernod Ricard since 2016. From the Founder, John Little: Who is crazy enough to start a whiskey company from scratch, in the hills of West Virginia, in a world filled with hundred-year-old Kentucky distilleries? Folks with a fiercely independent spirit, that's who. At Smooth Ambler, tradition isn't a recipe we follow. Our company is literal proof of solid Appalachian know-how. That's when the hard working, creative, and resourceful folks of West Virginia come together to make something beautiful (and damn good) that no one else thought possible. We didn't just set out to make award winning whiskey. We also set out to create a source of pride for West Virginians everywhere. To embrace the best of everything around us - the land, the people, and the resources – to create a business that would make a difference by providing opportunities for the people in our community. And the way we do it is simple, we do what we think is right, everyday. We don't look to see what our competitors are doing, we don't look at the past, we do it by being honest, embracing diversity, and creating relationships built on trust. It's not complicated, it's the only way we know how to do it. So yeah, we're not from Kentucky, but if you couldn't already tell, we like it that way. Because it turns out you can make bourbon in West Virginia, too. And you don't need a family name or recipe to make that award winning whiskey, you just need a fiercely independent spirit. - John Little, Founder Coverage and Show Links: Smooth Ambler Smooth Ambler: A West Virginia distillery with real spirit | Positively WV Podcasts | wvnews.com

Old-Fashioned Football welcomes the head distiller from Savage and Cooke, Dylan Carney, on their first all-whiskey podcast. Savage and Cooke, located in Vallejo, California, is owned by Dave Phinney. Phinney, the previous owner of Prisoner Wines, now owns Savage and Cooke Distillery. Savage And Cooke Distillery's Head Distiller Dylan Carney | Old-Fashioned Football (Ep. 36) The hosts and Dylan touch on a lot of different subjects including Dylan's background and path to where he is today, the uniqueness of their product, and even a great lesson on Absinthe. Dylan brings a wealth of knowledge in whiskey and distilling and shares a ton of great information with the hosts. After answering the hosts' questions, Dylan leads them through a tasting of four of Savage and Cooke's products. They start with the Second Glance, their American Whiskey, which has notes of sweetness and a really nice finish. They then move to Lip Service, their Rye Whiskey, which almost has a thicker texture the hosts notice as Dylan explains the mash bill. Then Dylan and the hosts move to Burning Chair, their Bourbon. Of these three, Miranda and Justin have different favorites but agree that all three products are excellent. To close the tasting, the group moves to Savage and Cooke's newest ready-to-drink product, The Manhattan Project. Dylan explains a little about the market research the team did, as well as what they were hoping to accomplish. The hosts are blown away by this one, feeling like they've just ordered a drink at a good cocktail bar. Last, the hosts ask Dylan some listener questions as they close out their discussion.
