Bottled-in-Bond. What does this designation mean when it is on a bourbon or whiskey label? Are you more or less likely to pick up a bottle of liquor when it states that it is “under U.S. Government Supervision”?
We discuss the Bottled-in-Bond Act and whether the law’s requirements are still necessary today or if it is just a marketing gimmick. Scott shares why this is one of his favorite types of whiskey. Craft distillers are starting to produce “bonded” products, does it set them apart from their competitors?
