Dan McKee has big shoes to fill.
In April he received promotion to Master Distiller at Michter’s Distillery in Louisville, following the retirement of one of his mentors, former Master Distiller Pamela Heilmann. Heilmann set precedent for women leaders in whiskey distilling, and had a reputation for her old-school work ethic and unflinching commitment to quality.
McKee first worked under Heilmann at Booker Noe Distillery, and then followed her to Michter’s. Having learned from her and other industry greats in various ascending distillery roles (including his start at Jim Beam), McKee now moves up to Master Distiller with a wealth of industry experience. We recently caught up with McKee to talk whiskey and what’s next for Michter’s, as he takes over the production reigns for this global brand.
