about our founder
Meet Morgan Salsman, a spirited and ambitious professional with a unique journey that bridges two worlds: engineering and bourbon. Hailing from Bardstown, Kentucky—the renowned "Bourbon Capital of the World"—Morgan’s roots are deeply intertwined with the rich heritage and tradition of American whiskey. Growing up in this vibrant community, she was surrounded by the art and science of bourbon-making from an early age, fostering a deep-seated appreciation for the craft.
Morgan’s academic journey took her from the rolling hills of Bardstown to the University of Alabama, where she pursued a degree in Civil Engineering. When she graduated, she embarked on a successful career as a civil engineer. For three years, Morgan worked on a variety of high-profile projects, honing her skills in project management, structural analysis, and innovative problem-solving.
Despite her accomplishments in engineering, Morgan felt a compelling pull back to her roots. The allure of the bourbon industry, with its intricate blend of tradition and innovation, beckoned her to explore new horizons. Driven by a passion for her heritage and a desire to blend her technical expertise with her love for bourbon, Morgan made the bold decision to transition into the industry that had always been a part of her life.
Today, Morgan brings a fresh perspective to the bourbon world, combining her engineering background with an intimate knowledge of the industry’s legacy. Her unique blend of skills and experiences positions her as a dynamic force in bourbon barrel investments, where she continues to contribute to the evolution of one of Kentucky's most iconic traditions. Morgan remains deeply connected to her roots and committed to celebrating the rich legacy of her hometown.
