VAGentleman Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I love the part about Rowans Creek being made by a small distillery in Kentucky. These guys don't do much research it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OscarV Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Yeah, the Rowans Creek reference made me laugh.Bourbon is 'trendy" now and over the last couple of years news outlets and other entertainment & consumer media have been doing a lot of stories about bourbon.And they always go to JVW III, it's why you can't not only get Pappy anymore but Old Rip as well.

Tony Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Thanks for sharing, interesting read. I know I should have skipped the scotch thing and gotten into bourbon much earlier. For me I do not see stopping until they put me in the ground and I hope my sons will do a toast to me as I go in.Best regards, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowdery Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'd like to say we've seen hundreds of stories about bourbon and rye in the last couple of years, but what we've actually seen is the same story hundreds of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restaurant man Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I think it's very educational. I wonder who Julian's grandfather :crazy:used as inspiration when he created the "pappy van winkle label":lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Actually, Pappy didn't create the Pappy label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
