Corn was an early staple in the United States, especially in the 90 Proof 100 Proof state of Kentucky. Naturally, distillers turned to corn to make their first whiskeys in the late 19th century.

Some of these barrel-aged products include brands such as Jack Daniel’s, Early Times, Old Forester, and Woodford Reserve. Recently, legislation passed by the State of Tennessee has increased the importance of the activities at the cooperage (barrel-making) facility: “NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - If it isn't fermented in Tennessee from mash of at least 51 percent corn, aged in new charred oak barrels, filtered through maple charcoal and bottled at a minimum of 80 proof, it isn't Tennessee whiskey. So says a year-old law that resembles almost to the letter the process used to make Jack Daniel's, the world's best-known Tennessee whiskey.” [emphasis added] http://www.aol.com/article/2014/03/17/jack-daniels-opposes-changing-tenn-whiskey- law/20851352/?icid=maing-grid7|maing13|dl7|sec1_lnk3%26pLid%3D454551 Your team has been hired as external consultants to assist the Brown-Forman Corporation with making some strategically-driven operations decisions about how best to utilize the Brown-Forman Cooperage facilities to support several of its beverage brands.

  • Articles • Distilling Tradition: the Traditionalization of Craft
    PAGE 89 • Articles • Distilling Tradition: The Traditionalization of Craft Moonshine at Bear Wallow Distillery CAROLINE HUNDLEY MILLER Indiana University, Bloomington Abstract: Moonshine has traditionally been defined by the illicit nature of its production. Increasingly micro-distilleries are basing their business on the production of “legal moonshine”—legally produced un-aged whiskey labelled by the distillers as moonshine. This paper draws primarily on ethnographic work at Bear Wallow Distillery to understand how the owners create a destination distillery by connecting their legal moonshine and distillery experience to a local moonshining tradition and a broader rural American imaginary. It will also explore issues of traditionalization and commodification of heritage through examining how micro-distilleries rely on a perceived connection with an “authentic” moonshine tradition even as they seek to challenge traditional definitions of moonshine in the development of their own moonshining tradition. Bear Wallow Distillery is a family-run craft micro-distillery in Gnaw Bone, Indiana, nestled in the hills of Brown County. Brown County, situated about an hour south o f Indianapolis, is a popular tourist destination, especially for outdoor recreation. Its beautiful outdoor attractions include Hoosier National Forest, Brown County State Park, Yellowwood State Forest, Lake Monroe, and Lake Lemon. The distillery opened in 2014 and is owned and operated by Susan Spagnuolo. The distillery is truly a family-run business: Susan’s son Adam is the head of production, her son Jon is in charge of marketing and creates all the labelling and logos, and her husband Mike works at the distillery entertaining customers with highly engaging tours on the weekends.

  • BEER GOES BARLEY Creating Beer-Finished Single Malts
    Malt Maniacs E-pistle #2012-03 By Peter ‘Pit’ Krause, Germany This article is brought to you by 'Malt Maniacs'; an international collective of more than two dozen fiercely independent malt whisky aficionados. Since 1997 we have been enjoying and discussing the pleasures of single malt whisky with like-minded whisky lovers from all over the world. In 2010 our community had members from 16 countries; The United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, The U.S.A., Canada, India, Japan, Taiwan, Australia & South Africa. More information on: www.maltmaniacs.org. BEER GOES BARLEY Creating Beer-Finished Single Malts It all started out as a joke and turned into Bavarian Malt Mania: At the Finest Spirit Festival in 2011 in Munich, spirit expert Werner Obalski and independent bottler Andrea Caminneci (C&S Drams) were discussing the finishing practice in the whisky maturation when they saw a tiny beer cask. For Bavarians, Andrea remarked giggling, the industry should start working on beer finishing/maturation with these kinds of casks. Werner mentioned that such attempts had been done without much notice and that the idea – if it was properly carried out – wouldn’t be a bad idea after all. The thought needed some time to be processed, but Andrea said after a while, that such maturation should be tried again. That was birth of one truly maniacal undertaking. The idea spread around a small circle of insiders among the fair’s team and we agreed on the choice of a really sweet and potent beer similar to a sweet wine.
