A Boot Hill is a burial ground for the unclaimed, the poorest, and those hanged for misdeeds. For some, a Boot Hill was necessary - it got them the first few steps to heaven. And Dodge City, the fabled town of the old west, has the original Boot Hill.  Boot Hill Distillery isn't located on top of the hill, exactly (it's quite close), but it is built on those stories. Images of Wyatt Earp and other famous lawmen and outlaws grace their bottles while the whiskies are made with grains grown as close nearby as possible.  The brand is, after nearly a decade, still relatively young. Its whiskies are maturing, and its focus on wheat - the staple crop of Kansas - is bearing fruit in what's already out. We go through the founding story, how elements of the old west and the rich history are interwoven into the bourbon, wheat whiskey, and other spirits, and where Boot Hill is going from here.  Thanks everyone for listening, and thank you to Lee for entering the Whiskey Ring! _________________________________________________________ Before we jump into the interview just a few quick notes: Ad-free listening is now available to $5/month patrons and above!

Diving into the craft of distilling spirits, it's a journey that constantly surprises you with daily hurdles. In this uber-competitive alcohol space, there's global competition, national competition and intra-state compeition, all presenting their own unique challenges. One such welcome surprise is the strong sense of community within the Texas distilling industry, amongst those distilleries who share our passion and goals of producing superior, high quality spirits, as many of us have a shared passion for creating authentic, quality experiences with our spirits. In Texas, we're seeing a boom of independent distilleries rising to offer an array of ultra-premium spirits. This isn't just about competition; it's about collaboration and innovation. We're pushing the spirits industry forward by ensuring our products reflect the rich local resources and culture, while equally meeting and exceeding international standards. As I continue to develop my own ultra-premium Texas spirits, I'm excited about the future - for both my business and the industry as a whole. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that Kentucky is the only place that makes great Bourbon. Ten years ago, Texas Bourbon was an afterthought. Today, you're seeing significant investment and M&A activity in Texas, even by national and Kenutcky brands, becuase of the advancements and quality of products produced in Texas. But let's remember that despite rapid progress in technology and trends, at its heart, distilling is still an age-old craft requiring patience and passion and we're still in our infancy with the best yet to come. Here's to respecting tradition while embracing change! Cheers! #craftppirits #texasdistillery #mixology #barrelaging

The Most Wanted Single Malts in the World Hands up who knows where the world's most popular single malts come from? Okay, those of you who said "Scotland" can put your hands down again. It isn't that long ago that you would have been laughed out of court for suggesting that Scotland did not have the single malt market securely sewn up. All the big names – Macallan, Glenlivet, Highland Park, Ardbeg – were comfortingly Caledonian and it's hardly surprising; Scotland had, after all, pretty much invented the category. Sure, there were malts from other countries, but no one really took them seriously. However, in recent years, the entire whiskey landscape has changed; 20 years ago, no one took Bourbon or Irish whiskey seriously either. #investment #opportunity #whiskycollection #whiskylover #whiskybarrel #whiskycask #invest #investor #Investing #investors #assets #asset #assetmanagement #assetprotection #whisky #whiskylife #scotland  #scottish #scottishbusiness https://lnkd.in/gVsVePmT

Can Scotch whisky be bottled outside Scotland? 🤔 Nope! If it’s labelled and sold as "Scotch whisky," it must be distilled, matured, and bottled in Scotland. 🥃 According to the Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009 and international agreements, even if the whisky was aged for at least three years in oak casks in Scotland, it must also be bottled there to earn the "Scotch" name. 🌍 Why all the rules? It’s about protecting the reputation of Scotch whisky. When you see that label, you know you’re getting the real deal. Some argue the strict regulations stifle innovation, but these laws have been crucial in maintaining the industry’s growth, standards, and global reputation. 🌟 Other spirits, like those from historic rum-producing nations, are now pushing for similar regulations to safeguard their reputations. So, here’s to the high standards of Scotch whisky! 🥂

For communities and Indigenous people throughout Mexico, mezcal isn't just a distilled agave spirit taking the food & beverage world by storm—it's a deep connection to tradition, culture, and generations that have come before. It's a connection that Asis Cortés, a mezcal producer and advocate, is on a lifelong mission to protect. "Our main goal," he explains, "is to preserve... do we really want to be drinking a diluted drink just to fit the 40° standardization? Do we really want this industry to turn mezcal into a soulless business where the producer doesn’t have time to celebrate and create something for his family, to share and hold during the best times? Or do we want to in the next 15-20 years keep on drinking a good mezcal with our loved ones, keep on drinking a soulful spirit, a drink worthy of respect, because of their people, of its towns and its culture—that’s the key to understanding mezcal." Maguey Exchange is working with producers and advocates like Asis who are committed to keeping each bottle of mezcal authentic and pure, even as interest takes it far beyond the fields and palenques of origin. Take a listen to some of the challenges Asis and other producers and communities have faced as the demand for mezcal grows and then visit our website to learn more about how we're bridging the gap between producers and buyers who want the real deal, without sacrificing quality or the communities behind it. www.magueyexchange.com #Mezcal #OaxacaMezcal #SupplyChainSolutions
