Episode #94 Old Monroe Distillery - Surviving as a Craft Distiller

Welcome to Episode #94 of the Great American Whiskey Cookers! In this podcast, we take you on an immersive adventure to Columbia Illinois and Old Monroe Distillery. Join us as we delve into what makes this such a unique distillery.Running a distillery sounds like fun…making whiskey…tasting whiskey…but….there is a survival component to it. Especially for Craft Distillers. They not only have to keep an eagle on cash flow, while they make their whiskey, they also have to figure out how to get it to market and compete with the big boys so you get a chance to drink it. Adam and Laura Stumpf at Old Monroe Distillery give us some insight into running a husband and wife distillery.
