We’re joined by Dan Callaway, Master Blender and Vice President of Product Development at Lofted Spirits, for a Flight Night exploring four different pours — Bardstown Bourbon Kentucky Straight Bourbon, Bardstown Bourbon Rye, Bardstown Bourbon High Wheat, and Green River Full Proof.

Dan shares his unique journey from professional musician and certified sommelier to leading product development for Bardstown Bourbon Company and Green River Distilling, and explains what drew him to Bardstown in 2018 as the brand was redefining what a contemporary whiskey company could be. He also breaks down what makes a great collaboration partner—drawing from projects with Amrut, Plantation Rum, and Goose Island Beer—and why the company undertook a major packaging redesign.

We also discuss the addition of Green River Distilling to the portfolio, how Lofted balances multiple brands while supporting custom distillation partners, and what’s next for both labels.
