Old Forester Names Melissa Rift as Brand Ambassador/Master Taster

Brown-Forman owned brand Old Forester has announced that Kentucky native Melissa Rift has been named Brand Ambassador/Master Taster. 

Mark Bacon, Senior Vice President says:

Melissa brings a dynamic personality, a devotion to the bourbon industry and an enthusiasm for the rich heritage of our 152-year-old brand. We're thrilled to welcome her to the Brown-Forman family and are excited for her insights to amplify this new chapter in Old Forester's legacy.

My Take

Not a ton to add here, but a huge congrats to Melissa. Also, congrats to Old Forester for not doing what everyone else does (hiring middle aged or old white dudes). Definitely looking forward to Melissa's future contributions.
