Steve Nally
To Nally, transparency is an important concept. It is evident in the architecture, the way the product is presented, and the overall philosophy of the company. Transparency to Bardstown Bourbon is showing the bourbon public exactly what is taking place. According to Peter Loften, “When this company set out in 2014, the original plan was to grow into it in 15 or 20 years, we accomplished this goal in 6 years. Nobody could imagine the velocity the bourbon industry would grow at.” Steve Nally was the right man to carry out this philosophy.
