Send us a textListen, all the beautiful bourbon that is produced all over Kentucky (and other places) goes into brand new oak charred barrels.  We totally get it!  But after they go into barrels, you have to store them somewhere!  When most folks think about rick houses, they think of the beautiful wood warehouses that Buzick Construction Inc has built for generations!  But, it's interesting to know that wood is not the only natural resource that is used!  Today, the Bo Brothers talked with Alex Smith and Kayla Hoeck with A & S Solutions LLC and learned about their steel warehouses!  It's absolutely fascinating!  And, we loved to learn another example of how the Bourbon industry works together not as competitors but as each other's biggest supporters!  That's exactly the relationship A & S Solutions has with Buzick Construction.  Sit back, pour you some bourbon and listen to an entertaining but education episode of 2 Shots on a Barrel Podcast!https://www.facebook.com/groups/288170582570690 Bourbon Podcast Bo Brothers

Tasting Notes:  Right in the heart of bourbon country lies the bucolic Abbey at Gethsamane, home to cheese and fruit cake-making monks and the one-time home of Thomas Merton, one of America's intellectual giants. If you are visiting any of the countryside distilleries, it's worth a stop, as the chapel itself is a true place of respite among Kentucky's rolling bluegrass. And NOW, just a few hundred yards down the road you can pay a visit to Wally Dant's latest project, the Log Still Distillery, home to several brands, one of them a 4 yr wheated bourbon aptly named Monk's Road. The 94 proof offering was contract distilled to their specifications and presents a fantastic combination of high florals and heavy leather. On the palate, an initial sweetness gives way to strong oak, lots of spice, and a mellowing, complex fruit finish.

We're back on the road and at Log Still Distillery in Gethsemane, Kentucky.  We sit down with Founder, Wally Dant, to discuss all that has gone on at Log Still since we last visited over two years ago.  This is a destination distillery for anyone who is going out on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.  Log Still Distillery's expansive campus (in addition to its world class distillery and tasting room) includes an outdoor amphitheater with world-class entertainment, a 20,000 square foot wedding and events venue, multiple B&B's, a private train depot, a soon-to-open farm-to-table restaurant, and a walking path surrounding a 12-acre fishing lake.

Cheers,Scott and JakeBourbon Lens   About J.W. “Wally” Dant We call him founder, foreman, and fearless leader. You can call him Wally. As president/distiller, Wally Dant works hard every day to bring his vision for Log Still Distillery to life. And to Wally, it's about more than quality spirits and an unforgettable destination. It's about love of God, family, community and bourbon.  Wally is rebuilding and reimagining the historic distillery property, the very same land in southern Nelson County where his many family members once made spirits. “To be able to put your name as a distiller on a bottle is pretty humbling.” Log Still is Wally's way of honoring his family and giving back to the community he credits for providing his family with values and love. And drawing from years of experience in the healthcare and liquor industries, this business savvy entrepreneur is the right man for the job. Wally dreams big, and he won't stop until he sees those dreams come to fruition. If he's not hard at work shepherding the Log Still brands, you can likely find him making garden fresh salsa, hot sauce, ketchup from the homegrown garden, or cooking up a chef-like meal for friends and family. About Log Still Distillery Log Still Distillery is bringing bourbon back to Gethsemane. Guided by Wally Dant and cousins Lynne and Charles Dant, Log Still is built on old distillery land and reimagined to create a unique bourbon and family destination. Each bottle is filled with respect, ever mindful that faith, family, community, and bourbon pave the way for future generations. Featured products include the Monk's Road line of Kentucky bourbons and gins and Rattle & Snap Tennessee Whiskey line. Log Still anchors a pastoral campus that includes an outdoor amphitheater with world-class entertainment, a 20,000 square foot wedding and events venue, multiple B&B's, a private train depot, a soon-to-open farm-to-table restaurant, and a walking path surrounding a 12-acre fishing lake, making it a one-of-a-kind destination to make lasting memories with family and friends.

If you've been around bourbon long enough, then you know the name JW Dant. That's because the Dant name is equivalent to bourbon royalty as it is steeped in history. But there is another Dant that is wanting to bring his family name back into the distilling business and that's JW Dant, or better known as Wally Dant from Log Still Distillery. Wally joins the show to talk about his upbringing and how some early career choices he made early on put him in the fortunate position to revive life into Gesthamane Kentucky where he is building his own legacy in the bourbon business. Show Notes: Above the Char with Fred Minnick (@fredminnick) talks about the American single malt category Was there ever a moment where you realized bourbon was a part of your DNA? What have you discovered about understanding about your heritage? Who was the last person, in your family tree, to work at a distillery? What was your focus of study at Purdue? How did you progress in your career and businesses that you sold? How do you transition from selling your business to figuring out what to do next? When did you decide to make the investment from sourcing Tennessee whiskey to breaking ground on a distillery? What was the inspiration for putting a focus on rebuilding the community in Gethsemane? Did the lawsuit with Heaven Hill over your name come into play early on? What does 5th district mean on your Monk's Road label? What's your plan on having your whiskey be different than anyone else's? @logstilldistillery @jwwallydant Support this podcast on Patreon

It’s Kentucky’s newest distillery; Log Still Distillery is located in Gethsemane (just outside of Bardstown in Southern Nelson County). We toured the 300-acre “Dant Crossing” property with Founder and President, Wally Dant.  Wally, along with his family, Lynne and Charles Dant, are taking on this large project to create a “destination distillery” that is perfect for the whole family. Wally discussed the Dant family history in Nelson County and his efforts to revive the family name in the World of Kentucky Bourbon. He also shared two whiskey offerings that are going to be available at the Log Still tasting room; Monk’s Road Fifth District Series, a 6 year old Kentucky Straight Bourbon and Rattle & Snap, a Limited Release 8 year old 103 proof Tennessee Whiskey.  The Tasting Room is Now Open: Sunday 11 am - 5 pm Tuesday - Wednesday 10 am - 6 pm  Thursday - Saturday 10 am - 5 pm Bar is Open:  Thursday - Saturday 5-10 pm We are thankful for everyone who has taken the time to give us feedback on our podcast.  If you enjoy our content, consider giving us a 5 star rating on your favorite podcast app, leave us a review, or tell a fellow bourbon lover about our show.

Cheers,Scott, Jake, & MichaelBourbon Lens About Log Still Distillery Our story begins with our forefather Joseph Washington Dant and an old hollowed-out poplar log. With it, he fashioned a still and gave birth to the Dant family’s place in bourbon lore with a legacy all our own. In 1836, he started a story of heritage, and Kentucky bourbon has flowed through our family’s veins ever since.  Seven generations later, we’re building something new at our old Kentucky home. Spearheaded by J.W. “Wally” Dant and cousins Lynne and Charles, Log Still aims to combine the age-old craftsmanship of distilling with the camaraderie and spirit of a family-owned business. And because family is at the heart of what we do, we view every bottle as a nod of respect to the past. Log Still is Wally Dant’s tribute to his father, forefathers and their contributions to bourbon history. About J.W. “Wally” Dant We call him founder, foreman and fearless leader. You can call him Wally.  As president/distiller, Wally Dant works hard every day to bring his vision for Log Still Distillery to life. And to Wally, it’s about more than quality spirits and an unforgettable destination. It’s about revival.  The great-great-great-grandson of bourbon legend Joseph Washington Dant, Wally is keeping his family’s rich legacy alive as he builds upon the same land in southern Nelson County where his forefathers once made spirits. “To be able to put our name on a bottle again is pretty important.” Log Still is Wally’s way of honoring the Dant family name and giving back to the community he credits for providing his family with values and love. And drawing from years of experience in the health care and liquor industries, this business-savvy entrepreneur is the right man for the job. Wally dreams big, and he won’t stop until he sees those dreams come to fruition. And the future? Log Still is still family-owned and run by the Dants. If he’s not hard at work reviving the Log Still legacy, you can likely find him making garden-fresh salsa, hot sauce or ketchup, or cooking up a chef-like meal for friends and family. Product – Available in the Log Still Tasting Room - Opened May 18, 2021 Monk’s Road Fifth District Series With Monk’s Road Fifth District Series, we tip our hat to the historic tax district of Central Kentucky, deeply seeped in bourbon lore. With this rotating series of hand selected spirits, we honor a rich tradition of nearly lost fifth district distilleries. It’s all part of a long line of rotating Bluegrass-inspired bourbons created with the same ingenuity and fortitude made famous by our forefathers. So just this once, let’s celebrate the taxman. This first Limited Release pays homage to Cold Spring Distillery, a historic distillery in southern Nelson County, Ky., founded by J.B. Dant in the 1800s. The Cold Spring name harkened back to the spring where, even in the summer, the water stayed cool enough that the distillery could continue to operate. This 6-year-old bourbon masterfully blends notes of corn, rye and malted barley for a product that revives the spirit of the original. Monk’s Road Dry Gin Our essential gin is a unique offering from our Kentucky hills, with a delicate balance of distinctly complementary botanicals. We’ve married watermelon rind with zests of orange and lemon for a bright and fresh flavor – creating the perfect gin for all seasons and palates. Sip it slow and neat or dress it up in a cocktail. This palate pleaser possesses an air of refinement. Monk’s Road Barrel Finished Gin Utilizing our bourbon barrels, we handcrafted this barrel finished gin in homage to the rolling Kentucky hills we call home, allowing fresh botanicals of coriander, cranberry, juniper and nutmeg to develop and mature into the perfect flavor profile. Smooth and complex with a subtle waft of smoke, Monk’s Road Barrel Finished Gin nods to the pride of place, tradition and legacy for which the Dant family is known. Rattle & Snap Tennessee Whiskey Several varieties of straight and flavored whiskeys will be available soon for patrons who may want to branch out from traditional, Kentucky Bourbon.   About Dant Crossing Approximately an hour’s drive from both Louisville and Lexington, Dant Crossing is a picturesque, 300-plus acre campus with a slew of amenities and activities for the whole family. It will be a one-of-a-kind destination for unforgettable weddings, memorable corporate events, day trips, and weekend getaways and will be anchored by Log Still Distillery. The amenities at the campus will include a network of wooded walking trails, a fully functional private train depot connected to the Kentucky Railroad Museum, an outdoor amphitheater, farm-to-table restaurant, 12-acre lake for fishing, and four unique lodging options including the recently opened B&B, The Homestead and Poplar Cottage.
