A Legacy Poured
with Purpose

Our Story Begins with Family, Tradition, and Simple Quality

PaPaw to Autumn, Roy Nethery was a genuine character who was bigger than life. There was a ridge on his farmland where he’d take his family hunting, but in his later years, he was more interested in shooting the breeze than shooting at deer. Roy was an unfussy man who appreciated simple quality, and we’ve created PaPaw’s Ridge in his honor. Made with locally grown yellow corn and aged for four years, this is a bourbon made for good times with good people who value time well spent, especially if it’s just laughing together in the woods or on the lake.
