This past weekend, we had the privilege of participating in the Bootleg Bash at Ruby Falls in Chattanooga, TN.
A little rain didn`t stop anyone; good music and fine spirits were enjoyed by all! Folks from far and wide came to celebrate the role that caves played in Tennessee`s whiskey production, from prohibition `til now.
Thank you to everyone that stopped by to say "Hello"!
Cheers! 🥃

On July 28th LFD lost its matriarch and one of its biggest supporters, Gayle Locke Kennedy. As one of its founding members, Gayle was a steadfast supporter and friend of Leiper’s Fork Distillery. She was also the loving mother of two of our owners, Lee & Wes Kennedy. She was a fixture at our LFD events and at the Franklin festivals in which we are involved. Most important to Gayle was her faith in God and her love for her family. She was an avid Texas two-stepper and loved spending time with her family, fishing, and traveling. Gayle was a tough and respected businesswoman who successfully guided the administration of several businesses. She had a natural acuity as an entrepreneur and real estate investor. Gayle used her success to bless the lives of countless people across the country. She had a kind and giving heart and was a friend to all she met. Her zest for life and positive attitude was an inspiration to many. She lived and loved immensely and will be missed in her passing but never forgotten. She has left a legacy that is worthy of the life she lived. We love you and will see you soon.
