More fun at Diageo...

Y'all would know. I assume the same holds true for Tim Smith. Couldn't find it forever and now it's everywhere and doesn't appear to be moving.

Back on subject he is young and I expect greater financial reward is more important to him at this stage of his life.

I'm sure it wasn't for the money....just the prestige of joining a iconic, revered, historic brand such as Popcorn Sutton Distillery.

Speaking of Tim Smith's "moonshine", Lisa Wicker of Limestone Branch (distillers of that product) just announced on Twitter that she's accepted a position at Starlight Distillery in southern Indiana. Lots of shuffling going on right now in the microdistilling world.

Mrs Fox and I took a tour of Huber's Starlight distillery last weekend. a small operation, but I can get behind it. We love taking the mutts up there a few times a year and picking fresh fruits, and most always hit up the winery there. Theyve been making wines for years, and finally got the distillery permit in the last year or so. We tried their self-made vodka, gin, port.........and their currently-sourced bourbon (theyve only been distilling a year or so). The bourbon they said they bought at 4 years old from Ky and aged it there another year. It was good, at 95 proof, but out of line at $49.99 I thought. Their vodka, gin, and port were all well done, and even I bought a port. So, Im interested to see what the family-farm can put out for bourbon in 3+ years!
