PEGGY NOE STEVENS

"I gained a technical understanding when I worked in the spirits industry, learning all the facets of production methods from fermentation and distillation to barrel maturation. The first book I wrote was on flavor profiles. I partnered with chefs to create a flavor wheel to dissect the spirit; THAT turned me on to the world of spirits back in the late 90s. I could satisfy my foodie side and love of bourbon by bringing these two passions together. The innovation continues to inspire me in the bourbon industry because it allows me to be creative and think of the next offering we can share with consumers. All that said, being Kentucky-born and raised, it is in our DNA!" - Peggy Noe Stevens, Founder Bourbon Women. LEARN MORE: bourbonwomen.org
