The Bourbon Strike You Never Heard About (But Should Have) | The Spill

In 2021, one of the biggest names in bourbon, Heaven Hill Distillery, was at the center of a massive labor strike that shook the heart of Kentucky’s bourbon industry.

In this Spill, Matt and Jason dig into how the strike started, why nearly 420 union workers walked out, and what was really at stake: healthcare, overtime, family time, and the soul of bourbon itself.
What seemed like a simple contract dispute turned into a six-week showdown between tradition and corporate growth. We’ll break down the drama, the picket lines, the local fallout, and how it all got resolved.
