The story behind the Troy distillery honoring Clyde May’s legacy

An exciting new project will be completed soon in Troy, Alabama. The Conecuh Ridge Distillery, which will produce Clyde May’s Whiskey, was designed by the talented team at Luckett & Farley and will be a new experience unlike any other in the Southeast.

We had the opportunity to speak with Dana Zausch, the project’s Distillery Design Manager, to hear more about the vision of this one-of-a-kind project.

“I have been involved in the project from day one. I was actually hired to work on this project with my experience in distillery work. We started with a brand that had no home. The brand’s roots were in Alabama so its brick-and-mortar roots also needed to be. At that point, they had just gotten the donation of the property.
