✈️ WF066 to Tennessee: Company Distilling - Making Lynchburg More Than Just a Jack Daniel's Destination with Jeff Arnett
Manage episode 501023313 series 2644405
Company Distilling (Lynchburg, Thompson Station, Townsend, TN) WF0066
Way back in December 2021, I sat down with former Jack Daniel's Master Distiller Jeff Arnett in episode 45 to talk about his new venture - Company Distilling. We talked about how he fell into a job at the company, his rise, and the impact he had on that brand. Then we dug into his decision to join with other Tennessee entrepreneurs to create Company Distilling. It's a great episode and it really gets you a feel for where this all started.
Now, Company has just introduced a new location, interestingly enough, in the shadow of Jack Daniel's in Lynchburg. Today, we will pick up the story of Company from where we left off three and a half years ago. It's been an interesting ride for Jeff and the team. And we'll find out more about how Company fits into a Lynchburg visit.
Here is what we'll discuss:
- The Recent Journey of Company Distilling
- Innovations in Whiskey Production
- Maple Influence and the Barrel
- The Role of Team and Expertise
- Navigating Legal and Market Challenges
- Building a Distillery Network
- The Personalities of Distilleries
- Townsend: Grains and Grits
- Thompson Station: The fired still
- Lynchburg: Fitting in Next to Jack Daniels
- The Original Lynchburg Lemonade
Enjoy 20 extra minutes of this conversation as a member of the Speakeasy at patreon.com/whiskeylore where we talk about future plans, approachable complexity, Jeff's right hand man, the hazmat trend, and some more details from his Jack Daniel's days.
