I gotta figure out how to add photos at the top of this newsletter. Some really cool shit is happening this week, but you’ll just have to imagine it until tomorrow's Tribe episode.

First, phase 1 of the tasting room expansion is well underway.

The new bar is getting framed out, but that’s not the best bit. Zac, a resident MB and woodworking badass just put the finishing touches on our new seating area. It’s a wooden booth inspired by the shape of a whiskey barrel.

Sit inside. Taste the whiskey. BE the whiskey…

Next, San Antonio based MB, Joey, just put a huge doorway in the Wall of Magnificence. Now you can move from the front of the tasting to the expanded back seating area in one glorious strut.

It makes both rooms feel a lot bigger, which is great. #FullKatana

Last, I stepped into the distillery this morning and immediately knew what was in the still. That dense vanilla cream smell of 15 year old whiskey being redistilled in our copper pot ABE is unmistakable.

Putting 15 year old whiskey back into a still is unheard of, especially at this scale. Apparently some cosmic mojo is conspiring with the alignment of the planets of my 3rd eye to magically make the redistilled spirit even BETTER than the original 15 year old version.

Big thanks to the MB’s in Patreon for making that call. Dunno if I’d have the sack to dump that much 15 year old whiskey into a still without the Tribe demanding it.

Funny thing is, those aren’t the biggest developments. Some things are amazing, some things are shitty, and I’ll be happy to share more when details firm up. For now, I’m just enjoying the ups and downs, twists and turns.
