David Gibson & Judge Roy Bean Spirits

Judge Roy Bean Spirits began when David Gibson sold his advertising and marketing agency and decided to try his hand at whiskey and tossed a new brand into the marketplace. His product has a distinct pecan wood finish, making it unique. The regulatory body in the state of Alabama offered him a trail in markets south of I-10 and his product quickly caught on. Today the product is avaiable across the state and David is now working to gain distrubtion outside Alabama. 

David has also created ancillary products to support the brand - soap, coffee, and a line of hats and T-shirts. He also has a wonderful satsuma based bitters that, along with his whiskey, make a stellar Old Fashioned. 

As we recorded the interview, his annual honey cask was hitting the shelves. It's a limited bottling. The idea presented itself to David when some hobbiest honey farmers wanted one of his casks to provide a whiskey flavor to their honey. He then took that cask and re-added whiskey, giving the whiskey a slight honey flavor. It's a match made in heaven.

David Gibson has a great story to tell. And maybe he's looking for an introduction to a country music singer? To understand that reference, you'll have to listen...
