Ground Floor Spirits: How Monks Brandy Is Making Its Mark in Iowa | Made In Iowa

In this episode of Made in Iowa, we sit down with Will Rogers, founder of Monks Brandy, to talk about what it looks like to take a bold leap later in life. Will shares the story behind the name Monks Brandy, why he chose brandy as his spirit of focus, and what motivated him—in his 50s—to step into the adult beverage world with confidence and intention. Rooted in memories of growing up when Brandy Alexanders were all the rage, Monks Brandy blends nostalgia with a modern sensibility, honoring tradition while inviting something new. Will also introduces listeners to Monks Brandy’s newest addition, The Liberty—a modern twist on the classic Sidecar and a refreshing summer-ready cocktail. As the brand begins to find its way into retail spaces across Iowa and beyond, this conversation offers a ground-floor look at an entrepreneur who proves that timing, experience, and courage matter more than age. It’s a story about trusting your instincts, building something meaningful, and pouring your past into a product designed for the future.
