Kentucky Bourbon Road Trip - Part 1: Oak & Age Distilling Co.

The Kentucky bourbon road trip begins! For our first stop, Daniel and James visited Oak & Age Distilling Co. and sat down with co-owner Dan to learn more about the distillery, its journey, and the passion behind building a craft spirits brand in Kentucky. We discuss the story of Oak & Age, what makes the distillery unique, and some of the challenges and rewards that come with operating in one of the most competitive bourbon regions in the world. This is Part 1 of our Kentucky Bourbon Road Trip series, where we'll be exploring distilleries, meeting the people behind the spirits, and sharing our experiences along the way. 🥃 Be sure to subscribe and follow along as we continue our Kentucky adventure. #TheLocalPour #KentuckyBourbon #OakAndAge #BourbonTrail #DistilleryTour #CraftSpirits #Whiskey #Kentucky #BourbonPodcast

Episode 56 - What Happened in Daniel’s Truck?!

For Episode 56 of The Local Pour, we’re recapping Daniel & James’ latest Kentucky adventure — from distillery stops and stories from the road to a little “cargo loss” involving some Whiskey Thief Distilling Co. whiskey in Daniel’s truck. 🥃😂We talked about all four stops from the last 2 trips, behind-the-scenes moments that didn’t make the videos, and whatever chaos was happening during filming around the PorchFest episode. Plus, Daniel dropped some life advice for the week: “Just make sure it’s actually Wells Fargo calling you.” 😅 And yes… we poured some Whiskey Thief on the show — or at least what survived the ride home. A laid-back episode full of road stories, laughs, and good pours. Cheers! 🥃

Episode 55 - PorchFest Takes Over Newnan

This week on The Local Pour, we welcomed two of the organizers behind Newnan PorchFest to talk all about the upcoming event and what the community can expect this year. We dove into how PorchFest came together, what makes it special for Newnan, and why this event has become such a big deal for local music, local businesses, and the community atmosphere. No Pour of the Week this episode — we kept the focus on PorchFest and everything coming up around it. If you’ve been curious about PorchFest or planning on going, this is the episode for you.

Behind Bars at The Whiskey Prison

This week The Local Pour went on location to Southern Grace Distilleries — home of The Whiskey Prison in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina. Daniel and James sat down with Thomas — owner, board member, and founding partner — to talk bourbon, the history behind Whiskey Prison, what makes the distillery unique, and the passion that built it from the ground up. This isn’t a normal episode — it’s a laid-back sit down inside one of the most unique bourbon destinations we’ve ever visited. If you love bourbon, good stories, and hearing from the people behind the bottle, this one’s for you. 🥃 Huge thank you to Southern Grace Distilleries, Whiskey Prison, and 73 & Main for the hospitality and the tour. 🌐 https://www.whiskeyprison.com [https://www.whiskeyprison.com] 🌐 https://73andmain.com [https://73andmain.com] Follow The Local Pour: Facebook • Instagram • TikTok • YouTube • Spotify • Apple Podcasts #TheLocalPour #WhiskeyPrison #SouthernGraceDistilleries #Bourbon #NorthCarolinaBourbon #Podcast #BourbonPodcast #OnLocation #73AndMain
