A brand new episode of the Heaven Hill Distillery podcast, “Tales from the Hill”, is out now hosted by Heaven Hill Distillery Master Distiller, Conor O’Driscoll and narrated by Heaven Hill National Whiskey Ambassador, Bernie Lubbers.

In 2020, something historic happened. Whisky Advocate named Larceny Barrel Proof (B520) “Whisky of the Year”. This isn’t the first Heaven Hill Distillery brand or mashbill to be recognized by a major competition, so why is this win so special? It’s because Larceny Barrel Proof is the first wheated bourbon to ever receive the title. In this episode, we are diving deep into the Larceny vault to discover the folklore of John E. Fitzgerald, details on how it is crafted from our Master Distiller, and even inspiration on how to best enjoy Larceny Barrel Proof.

Hear from Heaven Hill Distillery’s VP American Whiskeys, Susan Wahl; Master Distiller, Conor O’Driscoll; Larceny Bourbon Brand Manager, Kristen Willinger; and Director of Corporate Communications and Community Affairs Josh Hafer as they recount this historic event.
