Brindiamo Group and Log Still Distillery have announced a new partnership that will provide Brindiamo with a dedicated barrel warehouse. The rickhouse is located on the grounds of Log Still Distillery in Gethsemane, Nelson County, Kentucky and will provide Brindiamo with a traditional company-owned storage for barrels.
“We are extremely excited to announce the completion of the first Brindiamo rickhouse to better serve our clients with their barrel storage requirements,” said Brindiamo Group President and CFO Jeff Steinberg. “With a capacity of approximately 30,000 barrels, the rickhouse is a joint effort between Brindiamo and Log Still Distillery. It represents a milestone for our company that will dramatically expand our capabilities to directly service our clients’ needs.”
The idea of this initial rickhouse came during conversations between Log Still Distillery Founder and President Wally Dant III and Brindiamo’s Chairman and CEO, Jeff Hopmayer.
“Brindiamo Group is now providing unique strategic advantages to our team at Log Still to continually enhance operations at the distillery,” said Dant. “Working with Brindiamo on solutions for us and our collective clients makes complete sense, and we are happy to have them as a strategic partner.”

“Wally and I saw a unique opportunity to build a strong partnership between Brindiamo and Log Still,” Hopmayer explained. “This modern rickhouse provides dedicated storage for our clients. Barrels will be managed and operated by experienced teams on the grounds of Log Still Distillery.”
Chris Ecken, Brindiamo’s Vice President of Strategy & Analytics, added, “The procurement of our own rickhouse is a real game-changer for Brindiamo and our clients. It will house barrels that Brindiamo owns, as well as Log Still barrels and some third-party barrels. This signifies a major expansion of our core strategy of barrel sourcing, and it is the first of many rickhouses that are in our plans for the future.”
