As both Founder and Master Distiller at Leiper's Fork, Lee is passionate not only about the history of whiskey in the area but also the history of American whiskey as a whole. He and Luke take a deep dive into the effects of the prohibition movement, how illicit moonshine making has developed into modern day whiskey practices. They also get into Lee's own whiskey journey and how he found himself fascinated from a young age with the creative process of whiskey making which led him to founding the Leiper's Fork distillery.


Leiper's Fork Bourbon Whiskey Bottled In Bond was the overall winner of the 2024 W Club Members' Choice Awards

Hailing from Leiper's Fork distillery in Tennessee, this five-year-old bourbon was made with a mashbill of 70% corn, 15% wheat and 15% toasted malted barley, and has been pot distilled for a full-bodied pre-prohibition style. Bottled-in-bond at 50% abv, the expression is free from chill filtration. 

Rich aromas of freshly made pralines coated in rich chocolate beautifully blends with notes of antique oak and fig jam. Delightfully rich flavors of butterscotch, sweet herbs, and dried citrus smoothly coats the palate, before a complex finish of fresh mint, luxardo cherries and maple cinnamon cookies.
