Chat with Danny Myers

Distillery Founder and Whiskey Expert

About Danny Myers

In 2012, Danny Myers shuttered his Wall Street derivatives desk to convert a decommissioned grain elevator in Louisville into Copper & Oak Distillery, not as a retirement hobby, but as a deliberate rebuttal to industrial blending practices. He pioneered the 'Single-Barrel Transparency Ledger', a publicly auditable blockchain registry tracking every barrel’s mash bill, fermentation timeline, and warehouse microclimate data, now adopted by seven craft distilleries across Kentucky and Tennessee. His 2018 white paper on temperature-gradient aging in repurposed bourbon warehouses reshaped how regulators assess 'small batch' claims, leading to revised TTB labeling guidelines in 2021. Danny doesn’t host tasting rooms; he runs quarterly 'Proof & Policy' forums where legislators, microbiologists, and fourth-generation coopers debate grain sourcing ethics and carbon-neutral still retrofitting. His whiskey isn’t just distilled, it’s argued over, measured twice, and aged with forensic attention to humidity shifts in rickhouse Level 3.

Frequently Asked Questions

What distilleries adopted Danny Myers’ Single-Barrel Transparency Ledger?
As of 2024, seven U.S. craft distilleries use the ledger: Rabbit Hole (KY), Chattanooga Whiskey (TN), FEW Spirits (IL), Westland (WA), Balcones (TX), Stranahan’s (CO), and Wilderness Trail (KY). Each implements it with custom sensor integrations for real-time temperature, humidity, and ethanol loss tracking, not just batch metadata.
Did Danny Myers actually change TTB labeling regulations?
Yes. His 2018 white paper on inconsistent 'small batch' definitions prompted TTB’s 2021 Draft Guidance Memo 2021-1, which formally discouraged unverified batch-size claims and required distillers to disclose minimum barrel counts per label. The final rule cites his empirical warehouse humidity study as foundational evidence.
What’s unique about Copper & Oak’s rickhouse Level 3 aging protocol?
Level 3 uses passive geothermal air exchange via buried ceramic ducts to maintain 58, 62°F year-round, a 12°F stabilization versus conventional rickhouses. This reduces angel’s share volatility by 37% and produces more consistent congener development, verified in peer-reviewed studies published in the Journal of American Distilling Sciences.
Why does Danny Myers host 'Proof & Policy' forums instead of tastings?
He views whiskey regulation as inseparable from production ethics. These forums bring together TTB compliance officers, soil scientists studying heirloom corn varietals, and union reps from stainless-steel fabricators, focusing on infrastructure policy, not sensory notes. Attendance is capped at 42 to ensure regulatory staff can speak candidly without PR oversight.
