Memphis, Tennessee-based Old Dominick Distillery announces that master distiller Alex Castle will be leaving the company after nine years of service. Castle will return to her home state of Kentucky to pursue new opportunities in the industry.
“We are enormously grateful for Alex’s contributions in her nine years and the foundation she helped build at Old Dominick,” said Chris Canale Jr., owner of Old Dominick Distillery. “We’re confident we have assembled an outstanding team over these years and are excited for the opportunities to showcase their talent as we continue to make carefully crafted spirits that we’re proud to offer as Memphis’ only local distiller. We wish Alex all the best as she embarks on her new journey and appreciate everything she has done for the company.”
“Helping start-up and launch Old Dominick has been one of the most exciting, enjoyable, and rewarding opportunities of not only my career but also of my life,” said Castle. “It’s incredible to look back over the last nine years and see just how much this team has accomplished. We’ve come a long way in that time, and I know the team will continue to take Old Dominick to new heights.”
Castle’s last day at Old Dominick will be May 24.
