228: Brindiamo Group Pulls Back the Curtain of the Whiskey Industry


Jeff Hopmayer joins us in “The Office” to discuss the Brindiamo Group, the company he founded, which has played an integral part in the behind-the-scenes creation of many spirits brands you’ve seen emerge and grow in years past. In fact, Brindiamo Group stands out as one of the largest suppliers of bourbon, whiskey, and other bulk spirits in the world. We delve into the Brindiamo Group’s exceptional position in the spirits world and the growth of sourced and independently bottled whiskey. This provides a distinct perspective on one side of the whiskey industry that is often overlooked and even mysterious. We cannot express enough gratitude to Jeff for his openness and the insight he provided during this episode.
