Ep.15 Red Ox Distillery
from Sip Wiselee Hosted by Jonathon Lee
The Sip Wisely podcast welcomes distiller guests Hunter Smith and Cole Oxley of Redox Distillery, joining the host from Ohana Pizzeria in Fulton, Missouri. Redox, a name derived from Cole Oxley's nickname ("red ox") and his red hair, focuses on creating high-quality, innovative spirits, emphasizing that they are "not stuck on traditional ways" due to their engineering backgrounds. The conversation covers their unique production process, including using a Civil War-era yeast for precise single distillation to retain maximum flavor. They proudly discuss their award-winning line of products, which includes the ADI "number one citrus liqueur in the world," Orange Cello, and silver medal whiskies like Wicked Warrior and Alumni Select. A core mission of Redox is local partnership; they currently collaborate with over three dozen Missouri businesses on unique products ranging from whiskey-aged cheddars to barreled cigars. The distillers also tease ambitious future projects, including a tea-infused whiskey and a special bourbon blend using spirits gathered from every state in the union for the nation's 250th anniversary. Finally, they reveal that the next episode will feature a tasting of the Wicked Warrior, Alumni Select, Orange Cello, and Almond cordial. Check out the Red Ox website!
