MEET THE
EXPERTS.
EXPERIENCED. WELCOMING. GENUINE.
Our team may be small, but we are mighty! First and foremost, we use attention to detail to produce the highest quality, cleanest spirits possible. Second, we use a “go getter” attitude to provide the highest level of hospitality to our guests and customers. We will be prepared, welcome you with a smile and make sure you are entertained and well cared for in our distillery.
MEET THE TEAM
SCOTT BUSH
Scott has a degree from MIT but somehow found his way into the booze business. He started and grew Templeton Rye from nothing into one of the best known and most successful whiskey brands of the 21st century.
Scott was an early leader in the fledgling craft spirit industry including being active in the American Distilling Institute, an original member of the Craft Spirits Board for DISCUS and working with various colleagues to recreate George Washington’s original peach brandy at his distillery at Mt Vernon. He shared a lot of his time, learnings and enthusiasm with early craft distillers, helping them and the industry get off the ground.
Scott loves to entertain guests at the distillery and help them craft custom spirits to celebrate a business or personal milestone.
In his free time, Scott coaches youth basketball and serves on the board of directors for Lincoln Savings Bank and Thelma’s Treats.
Andrew Tomes
Brand Manager
He’s here, he’s there, he’s every #%$@& where. Meet Andrew Tomes, Head of Sales for Foundry Distilling Co, who is known to many as “Can-do Andrew”. Andrew has been in the spirits and hospitality business for many years, starting as a bartender and spending over a decade selling Templeton Rye all over the country.
Andrew grew up in West Des Moines, with a short stint living outside of Toronto. Andrew knows a fair amount about almost any subject and probably knows a few people and the best dive bar in your town. Drew’s favorite whiskey is our Arrogant Bastard Malt, but he is often seen enjoying a Coor’s Light.
