competitions challenging
bartenders to create cocktails
using locally grown ingredients
and to reduce waste.
"My family has been distilling
spirits since 1691 and from
that moment we have always
sought the perfect balance
between a commitment to taste,
a commitment to bartenders
and a commitment to the world
around us," says Bob Nolet, 11th
generation of the Ketel One family.
Since White Oak trees are
essential to aging bourbon,
Maker's Mark partnered with
the University of Kentucky and
Independent Stave company
to study the DNA of the White
Oak to preserve and protect the
species. Similarly, J A C K D A N I E L 's
worked with the University of

Tennessee to study White Oaks,
and the Kentucky Distillers'
Association, Sazerac, Beam
Suntory and others joined in the
White Oak Initiative.
Farther south, P A T R Ó N worked
with a Mexican agricultural
research center to study Weber
blue agave plants.

Protect important
environments.

NOVO FOGO ORGANIC CACHAÇA,

nestled in the heart of Brazil's
Atlantic Forest, focuses on saving
that coastal rainforest, which has
lost 88% of its original 375 million
acres to deforestation. Novo Fogo
manages an "Un-endangered
Forest" project to bring back
threatened tree species of native
trees.

Closer to home, several
Kentucky distilleries have created
nature sanctuaries on or around
their properties, including
W O O D F O R D R E S E R V E , J I M B E A M and
MAKER'S MARK.
"This designated water
sanctuary reflects our
commitment to improving
plant diversity, preventing
erosion, increasing groundwater
infiltration and providing wildlife
habitat," explains the Maker's
Mark website.
So next time you're shopping
for liquor, look for labels from
distilleries that care.
