Jackie Zykan Leaves Hidden Barn Whiskey
Jackie Zykan and Royce Neeley have announced that Jackie is stepping away from Hidden Barn, and Neeley Family Distillery will continue production of the brand.
Zykan created Hidden Barn in 2022, in partnership with Royce Neeley and Nate Winegar. In 2024, Neeley purchased Hidden Barn from the partners, with Zykan remaining as Master Blender and Winegar as Brand Ambassador.
Today, Winegar will continue his role as Brand Ambassador and Neeley will continue production of Hidden Barn. Zykan will stay involved with the Neeley Family Distillery by supplying some of its herbs used in its Absinthe.
Moving forward, Zykan will be focusing her efforts on her new agriculture venture, and her other business, Oduoak, which is a line of whiskey-based fragrances she created in 2020.
