In 2015, during their honeymoon in Kentucky, John and Emily were inspired by a visit to Wild Turkey Distillery and dreamed of starting their own distillery back home. The pandemic in 2020 gave them the opportunity to learn the craft, and in 2022, they launched River’s Edge Spirits. With a focus on local ingredients and the charm of their hometown, they aim to showcase their region’s best through their premium spirits. While currently in a production-only phase, they have big plans for a future distillery space that celebrates their passion for craft spirits and their community.
