Soil Consulting and Crop Consulting in Illinois. You may call it soil testing, soil sampling, or soil health management, but it is more than that. These are my daily or weekly travels in soil and crop consulting and my observations in the agricultural world.

Enjoying Kentucky Ag Products
Our annual consultants meeting was in Lexington Kentucky. It is located in Bluegrass Country and is a beautiful part of the state. There are also several bourbon distilleries in the area. We toured Four Roses Distillery and Woodford Reserve Distillery. Actually Four Roses does not use andy Kentucky farm products. They get their corn from Indiana and Rye and Barley from other states. Woodford Reserve uses Kentucky corn, but rye and barley from other states. At Four Roses, we were not able to see the process in person, because of active construction to allow expansion. The staff was very hospitable. Both distilleries had a tasting room to sample the products. The Photos below are all from Woodford Reserve Distillery. The basics are the same. Bourbon is made from at least 51% corn mash and must be aged in charred Oak Barrels. Each individual distillery adds character to their products in different ways that create subtle little differences.
