In the second of two episodes from this weekend’s Kentucky Bourbon Festival in Bardstown, we’ll hear from the newest members of the Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame. Fred Noe is the 7th generation member of the Beam family at Jim Beam, and Tom Blincoe’s Buzick Construction has been responsible for most of the state’s major distillery construction projects over the last several decades. In the news, Whisky Magazine announces the winners of this year’s U.S. Icons of Whisky Awards, Jimmy Russell explains just what happened when his team made a mistake that led to Wild Turkey’s new Forgiven, and Mike Veach tells us about the Filson Historical Society’s Bourbon Challenge next month.
