In this REMIX Episode of The Bourbon Life Podcast presented by Liquor Barn, Matt and Mark are on location at Augusta Distillery in Augusta, Kentucky for the release of their 17-Year Old Buckner's Bourbon and they also spend some time hanging out with 4x guest, and Augusta Distillery's brand new Master Distiller and Director of Distillery Operations, Alex Castle, and Co-Founder and President, Ryan Edwards. This show originally aired on June 21, 2024 as Episode 228.

Matt and Mark talk with Alex and Ryan about Alex's decision to leave Old Dominick in Memphis, where she also served as Master Distiller, to take the reins at Augusta Distillery and Ryan's perspective on making such a tremendous hire for Augusta, the transition that Augusta Distillery will have to make over the next few years in moving from sourced Bourbon to using their own distillate (a process that Alex previously went through at her Old Dominick), and what the future looks like for the brand and for Augusta Distillery.

They also taste and review Augusta Distillery's full Buckner's lineup including Buckner's 10-Year Old Bourbon, Buckner's 13-Year Old Bourbon, Buckner's 15-Year Old Bourbon, and their brand new Buckner's 17-Year Old Bourbon.
