Old Pogue Distillery announced this week that it has joined the historic ranksof the Kentucky Distillers’ Association (KDA), the Commonwealth’s foremost voice on spirits issues formore than 130 years.
“Old Pogue has a Bourbon history dating back as far as the association itself, and we proudlywelcome them to the KDA,” said Jeff Conder, Chairman of the KDA Board of Directors and VicePresident, Global Supply Chain, for Beam, Inc.“We couldn’t be more pleased with the work that our craft partners have done in the past year tohelp move the KDA forward and promote and protect our signature Bourbon and distilled spiritsindustry.

E. Pogue Distillery still stands, the new small batchcraft distillery is on the same plot of land and is part of the historic Ryan-Pogue familyhome on West Second Street.Production there began in March, using Pogue family recipes dating to the late 1800s. Productsinclude Old Pogue Master’s Select Bourbon and Limestone Landing Rye Whisky.

Pogue, President of The Old PogueDistillery.“Our forefathers were instrumental in the early days of the KDA, and to be affiliated with the KDAonce again is very humbling for us.”Pogue becomes KDA’s 13th member and the seventh Kentucky craft distillery to join.
The KDA is a non-profit trade association founded in 1880.
