The winner of our Tournament of Whisky is finally announced. If you’ve stayed up with us on Instagram and our live feed, you may already know the winner. We discuss the “controversy” surrounding our pick for best whiskey from our 16 selections. We also discuss if larger bourbon producers, like Woodford Reserve and Jim Beam, have a stigma in the industry. We dive into another controversial product head on and debunk any negativity towards it. And Jake hits us with the quote of the week when discussing some infighting in the bourbon community: “Popularity doesn’t make good bourbon.”
And finally, we discuss why we are feeling like it’s the holidays in Louisville and around Kentucky. It’s Derby season!! In a series of tough choices, we discuss favorite drinks during Derby time and which horse track is our favorite, Churchill Downs or Keeneland.
