Beginning in the 1950s, his work behind the scenes modernized production and quality control for spirits ranging from Seagram’s to Chartreuse.  He left a permanent but mostly invisible mark on spirits around the world. Much of what we see on shelves today can be traced back to Duane’s innovations and dedication to quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTom Maas, Duane's son, became a brand builder, anchoring his efforts in the life and legacy of his father and other Stillmen like him. He formed growth and innovation strategy for heritage brands such as Jack Daniels, Canadian Club and the Jim Beam portfolio.  His vision helped usher in the era of small-batch bourbon, which brought the craft of whiskey-making to life for drinkers everywhere.  Tom became a bridge between the maker’s discipline and the marketer’s imagination, ensuring that every story told was rooted in authenticity and respect for the stillman’s art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Tom’s son Nick Maas runs Dancing Goat Distillery. At the blending table and the still, he carries forward the family tradition.  Stillman’s Sonder reflects his reverence for his father and grandfather, and every bottle contains their shared ideals: the precision, curiosity, and dedication of the stillman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e94 Proof (ABV 48%)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}' class=\"EOP SCXW166694593\"\u003eTHE DISTILLERY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row sqs-row\" id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1622841428187_280\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col sqs-col-7 span-7\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\" id=\"block-33a4c5d05089eedab43e\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fe-block fe-block-ff444e7a7229f2a7a7f8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block website-component-block sqs-block-website-component sqs-block-html html-block\" data-block-css='[\"https:\/\/definitions.sqspcdn.com\/website-component-definition\/static-assets\/website.components.html\/b4e1930e-52af-4d16-b143-452b8723e1ae_332\/website.components.html.styles.css\"]' data-block-scripts='[\"https:\/\/definitions.sqspcdn.com\/website-component-definition\/static-assets\/website.components.html\/b4e1930e-52af-4d16-b143-452b8723e1ae_332\/website.components.html.visitor.js\"]' data-block-type=\"1337\" data-definition-name=\"website.components.html\" data-sqsp-block=\"text\" id=\"block-ff444e7a7229f2a7a7f8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-text-block-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-html-content\" data-sqsp-text-block-content=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqsrte-scaled-text-container loaded\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--darkAccent\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHERE NATURE MEETS ENGINEERING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fe-block fe-block-63dfb25cd82c07684f35\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block website-component-block sqs-block-website-component sqs-block-html html-block\" data-block-css='[\"https:\/\/definitions.sqspcdn.com\/website-component-definition\/static-assets\/website.components.html\/b4e1930e-52af-4d16-b143-452b8723e1ae_332\/website.components.html.styles.css\"]' data-block-scripts='[\"https:\/\/definitions.sqspcdn.com\/website-component-definition\/static-assets\/website.components.html\/b4e1930e-52af-4d16-b143-452b8723e1ae_332\/website.components.html.visitor.js\"]' data-block-type=\"1337\" data-definition-name=\"website.components.html\" data-sqsp-block=\"text\" id=\"block-63dfb25cd82c07684f35\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-text-block-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-html-content\" data-sqsp-text-block-content=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--darkAccent\"\u003eThe Dancing Goat Team embarked on an eighteen-month journey—analysis, blending, reentry testing, gauging, finishing, re-blending, and regauging—to take the most choice barrels from their elusive aged stocks.
