Clyde May nurtured friends and made whiskey as easily as some fellows say their own name. His life's passion was making the very best whiskey to give to the people he cared for the most. In the deep South, there remain folks who still keep unmarked bottles of Mr. Clyde's special reserve tucked away as carefully as family Bibles and precious photographs. Mr. Clyde touched people like that.

Though most would consider Clyde and his family poor Alabama farmers, they never knew it. Talk with one of Mr. Clyde's neighbors or children, and they'll be hard pressed to remember a time when he wasn't giving - giving lessons on life, giving his time to help a neighbor, giving the small things that mean so much. Even a few revenuers that swore to catch every bootlegger on the Conecuh Ridge counted themselves professional buddies of Mr. Clyde.

In the spirit of Mr. Clyde's values, Conecuh Ridge is committed to that same neighborly legacy.

It's an attitude we bottle.
