Get a standardized bourbon education, with the tools & techniques to further study and understand your bourbon
Getting certified online is a great start to your spirit education journey, but there’s no match for actually being in the classroom and learning in-person. Check our Executive Spirit Steward Programs.
An advanced, one-day workshop designed exclusively for Executive Bourbon Stewards to deepen their technical understanding, refine their palate, and explore the art and science of bourbon alongside distiller and industry expert Matt Strickland.
Provides classroom training, hands-on bourbon distilling, and advanced sensory training for owners, managers, program directors, and team leaders.
I would recommend the Executive program for an enthusiast and for a younger bartender who has not yet done a lot of studies to sharpen their bourbon and distilling knowledge.

I am more confident when doing a tasting, either guiding it for friends or as a participant. It helps me look more credible on applications for industry jobs.

This certification provided me with a more in-depth knowledge of the distillation process and improved my sensory knowledge.

I certainly would recommend this program to a friend or colleague. You’ll learn so much in one day and emerge a much smarter consumer.
