How Bourbon Came to Kentucky
Manage episode 442943282 series 3604145
Imagine the misty hills of Kentucky, where towering rickhouses stand as silent sentinels, holding secrets that stretch back over two centuries. What if I told you that a series of unexpected events - triggered by some of the most influential figures in American history - led to the birth of something truly iconic? A rebellion, an escape, and a group of pioneers all set the stage for what would become the heart and soul of Kentucky: Bourbon. Can all these events be traced back to the ideas of one man? A founding father of our country? I think so. Listen in as I go back in time and explain how his ideas brought about the birth of America's Spirit....Bourbon!
Thank you for listening to Bourbon: Legends from the Trail, where history meets flavor and every bottle has a story to tell. Cheers to the stores and legends behind the Spirit! Please leave a rating and review as it will help me plan future episodes.
