We’re back on the road and at Log Still Distillery in Gethsemane, Kentucky.  We sit down with Founder, Wally Dant, to discuss all that has gone on at Log Still since we last visited over two years ago.  This is a destination distillery for anyone who is going out on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.  Log Still Distillery’s expansive campus (in addition to its world class distillery and tasting room) includes an outdoor amphitheater with world-class entertainment, a 20,000 square foot wedding and events venue, multiple B&B’s, a private train depot, a soon-to-open farm-to-table restaurant, and a walking path surrounding a 12-acre fishing lake.

About J.W. “Wally” Dant

We call him founder, foreman, and fearless leader. You can call him Wally. As president/distiller, Wally Dant works hard every day to bring his vision for Log Still Distillery to life. And to Wally, it’s about more than quality spirits and an unforgettable destination. It’s about love of God, family, community and bourbon.  Wally is rebuilding and reimagining the historic distillery property, the very same land in southern Nelson County where his many family members once made spirits. “To be able to put your name as a distiller on a bottle is pretty humbling.”

Log Still is Wally’s way of honoring his family and giving back to the community he credits for providing his family with values and love. And drawing from years of experience in the healthcare and liquor industries, this business savvy entrepreneur is the right man for the job. Wally dreams big, and he won’t stop until he sees those dreams come to fruition. If he’s not hard at work shepherding the Log Still brands, you can likely find him making garden fresh salsa, hot sauce, ketchup from the homegrown garden, or cooking up a chef-like meal for friends and family.
