Fairport, NY [07/09/2025] – Iron Smoke Distillery welcomes Summer in true farmhouse style with Farmhouse Rules host and Holiday/Spring Baking Championship judge, Nancy Fuller. Known for her culinary expertise and warm, rustic charm as a grandmother of 13, Nancy Fuller brings that same spirit to her bourbon debut. Crafted in collaboration with Iron Smoke Distillery, GG Guice is a bold and heartfelt expression of her beloved signature style.
Fans and bourbon lovers alike are invited to meet Nancy in person at Iron Smoke Distillery on Saturday, July 19 from 3:30pm–6:30pm to have their bottles of GG Guice Bourbon signed. During this one-of-a-kind experience, guests can expect a lively afternoon filled with great conversation, bold bourbon, and a truly unforgettable meet-and-greet experience.
How it all Started
Tommy Brunett, first crossed paths with the beloved Food Network star during the Battle of the Bourbons, hosted by NY Kitchen. Nancy Fuller, serving as the celebrity judge for the highly anticipated competition, was immediately captivated by Tommy and his magnetic presence.
Taking home the “Totally Neat” award for their highly acclaimed Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Nancy instantly recognized Tommy’s craftmanship and true authenticity and decided to make her spontaneous entry into the bourbon world. Their shared passion for quality, creativity, and artisanal excellence sparked an immediate connection, leading way for the perfect duo of a friendship.
Uniquely tying in Nancy’s role as an adored grandmother and her inspiration from her farmhouse surroundings, GG Guice was thoughtfully crafted with this in mind. Nancy was deeply involved in every step of the process and was excited to see how GG Guice would officially come to life.
She visited the farm where Iron Smoke gets all their corn, explored the machinery used in its production, and made sure to stop by Iron Smoke Distillery to personally inspect all the barrels Tommy set aside just for her.
Described by Nancy Fuller as “buttery, soft, spicy, and truly magical”, her hands-on approach to crafting GG Guice with Tommy and the Iron Smoke team perfectly captures her signature warmth and essence. Her dedication to the process ensures that every bottle truly embodies that soft hug from GG.
