In this episode of The Bourbon Lens, hosts Jake and Scott dive headfirst into what 2026 could mean for the bourbon industry. From production pauses at major distilleries to the continued rise of craft producers and non-distilling producers (NDPs), the guys explore how shifting market dynamics are reshaping bourbon as we know it.
They break down why sustainability and intentional production matter more than ever, how consumer preferences are evolving toward fewer but higher-quality releases, and why experiential whiskey events and bourbon festivals will be critical for brands looking to stand out. Along the way, Jake and Scott also reflect on personal goals, creating lasting memories, and the role whiskey clubs and communities play in keeping bourbon culture thriving.
Whether you’re a casual drinker, a serious collector, or someone curious about where bourbon is headed next, this episode offers thoughtful insight into the future of whiskey in 2026 and beyond.
