Join us as we delve into the captivating story of Southern Grace Distilleries, one of North Carolina's most unique bourbon producers, with Thomas Thacker. Celebrating their 10th anniversary, Thomas shares the remarkable journey of crafting their signature Conviction bourbon. Learn about their distinctive Piedmont-style mash bill and the innovative Whiskey Prison tasting experience that beautifully blends history and innovation.

In this episode, we explore the intricate art and science behind crafting Conviction bourbon, including the decision to use a lower barrel entry proof to enhance flavor. Discover how mash bills, Cooperage profiles, and environmental factors all play a role in the aging process. Thomas also reveals the community's crucial role in their growth and the transformation of a former prison into a storied distillery, adding depth and authenticity to their brand.
