Log Still Distillery is entering a new market this month. In a partnership with Mexcor, Monk’s Road line of bourbon and gins along with Rattle & Snap Tennessee Whiskey line will hit Florida shelves beginning mid-January in Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Jacksonville, Tampa, Orlando and Miami, the distillery states.
“This particular new market expansion is deeply personal for me,” said Wally Dant, President and Distiller at Log Still Distillery, in a news release. “Florida is where I began my first company in healthcare. I’m excited to return as a distiller and share my grandfather Wallace and great-grandfather Will’s historic distillery in crafting exceptional spirits. It feels like the right place to bridge two significant parts of my life that have been instrumental in my personal and professional growth.”
The Log Still Distillery campus is also home to The Amp, a world-class outdoor amphitheater, a special event venue and multiple unique bed-and-breakfast lodgings. After becoming fully operational in September 2022, the Gethsemane, KY distillery states that it produces 22,000 barrels annually.
Here are their products:
Monk’s Road Fifth District Series II
The Fifth District line of Monk’s Road Bourbons is a limited-release series of rotating bourbons that pays tribute to the historic distilleries of the fifth tax district. The second release in the Fifth District Series pays homage to F.M. Head Distillery, a distillery operated on Log Still’s hallowed grounds and included in its DSP-KY-47 lineage, where Log Still’s DSP number emanates, according to the distillery.
This expression honors F.M. Head Distillery as an exceptional 8-year-old high rye bourbon finished with a secondary toasted barreling. With a smokiness beautifully complementing notes of cherry and spice, this pour echoes with legends of distiller pioneers and celebrates today’s quality spirit, the distillery states.
