What happened
Nick Smith assumed the role of master distiller at Lofted Spirits, succeeding Steve Nally. Lofted Spirits is the parent company of Bardstown Bourbon and Green River Distilling. Smith, who previously served as director of distilling and head distiller at The Bardstown Bourbon Company, will now oversee production for the brands. Steve Nally transitioned into the master distiller emeritus position.
Why it matters
The change in leadership at Lofted Spirits, which manages Bardstown Bourbon, is significant given the company's growth into a large American whiskey supplier. Bardstown Bourbon Company has produced one million barrels since beginning distillation in September 2016, and Lofted Spirits also provides custom contract spirits services.
