Episode 180 – Drew Mayville – Buffalo Trace/Sazerac

This episode features ⁠Drew Mayville⁠ of ⁠Buffalo Trace⁠ and ⁠Sazerac⁠.

When Drew was originally looking for work he applied to a brewery and a distillery. The distillery turned out to be ⁠Seagram’s⁠. In hind sight this was his best move. He began in the distillery lab. After many years of working in different areas he was promoted to the Master Blender. We discuss his role at Buffalo Trace and some of the nuances for being a Master Blender. His first priority is being responsible for the consistency and quality of the spirit that goes into every bottle. Drew is always looking to make a better whiskey with Sazerac’s Buffalo Trace Distillery. Today he’s transitioning into being more of an ambassador and educating people about the products. After the interview, The Master Blender led us through a master class on some of Buffalo Trace’s most coveted expressions. Almost 200 plus in attendance at Roger Wilco were grateful for this once in a lifetime experience.

Episode 175 – Sono 1420 America’s Maritime Distillery – Ted Dumbauld

This episode features ⁠Ted Dumbauld⁠ of ⁠Sono 1420 America’s Maritime Distillery⁠.

Ted’s path to distilling originated from the cannabis industry. He had the idea to build a brand at the intersection of cannabis and alcohol. The innovation that he’s brought to the spirits world is a hemp based product. Ted took hemp seed and added it to the mash bill. Sono 1420 was born in 2020. Their location on the Long Island Sound affords them access to the terroir and maritime environment. Their “Threesome” ready to mix cocktail is another amazing creation that sets this craft distillery apart. What is coming out of ⁠Norwalk, Conn⁠ is so unique and different. We anticipate more wonderful expressions from this young and bold distillery.

Episode 46 – Pine Tavern Distillery – Bill Cox

This episode features Bill Cox of Pine Tavern Distillery. Bill and his family love to go camping for their vacations. They pack up the campers and check out places on the East Coast. On one of their trips they visited Copper Fox Distillery in Sperryville, Virginia. Later they pondered, “Why is there nothing like this in NJ?” Taking the next steps they met with now defunct Cooper River Distillers in Camden, NJ. This gave them the information and structure that they needed to get started. Cooper River helped them put things together. New Jersey is a “Right to Farm” State and they determined that the families farm was the perfect setting to get their distillery dreams going. Already growing corn on the land it was perfect. On February 3, 2016 they fired up the still and began to distill their Muddy Run Corn Moonshine. Now the 8th oldest distillery in NJ they continue to grow and expand. This camping trip inspired distillery is producing spectacular spirits which pay tribute to local history. They emphasize a spirit of collaboration with their neighbors and the local community. 149A Pine Tavern Rd, Monroeville, NJ 08343 – (856) 358-1076 – www.pinetaverndistillery.com – Facebook
