Driftless Glen has an ethereal quality to it...the name alone sounds mysterious, like a land stuck in time where great things can be found. Turns out, they can be. If you like whiskey and great food, of course - just don't ask to see the fryer (spoiler alert: there isn't one).
Founder Reneé Bemis joins me to talk about Driftless Glen Distillery, their independent way of doing things and the reason they'll never be bought out. They have the inspiration of Dave Pickerell, the roots of the landscape, and great whiskey to match. Want a single barrel? Call them and ask for Renee. Want to talk media? You'll talk to a real person (they get a shout out in the episode!). You want to experiment with something? Give them a call and see if it's possible.
Chances are, it is - and Driftless Glen will be right there to take that experiment to fruition. Seriously a distillery to watch.
