Sip Wiselee Podcast - Episode 17: The Lionheart Whiskey Co.

Welcome to Episode 17 of the Sip Wiselee podcast! This month, we had the distinct pleasure of sitting down with Clayton Newell, the Proprietor of Lionheart Whiskey Co., located in Hermann, Missouri.

Lionheart's foundation is inspired by powerful values: having the courage to be exceptional. They are dedicated to creating whiskeys that are bold yet elegant, familiar yet new, and best shared with friends. Clayton shares his deep-rooted passion for the spirit, revealing he has been appreciating the complex flavor of whiskey for over two decades.

We dive into the history of Lionheart, discussing why quality is their guiding foundation and how they meticulously ensure their expressions are handled with care, even utilizing natural Missouri limestone spring water in their process.

Clayton invites us into the world of Lionheart, explaining the philosophy behind their signature rye whiskey and their barrel proof Single Barrel releases. Plus, we explore the authentic experience visitors can expect when they step into their historic building in Hermann. Clayton describes this experience as inviting you into his living room for the day, complete with tasting tours and guided flights.

To enhance your experience, get out there and pick up a Lionheart single barrel now to prepare for our upcoming tasting episode!
