On the Road at the Kentucky Bourbon Festival
This week, we’re in Bardstown, Kentucky for the annual Kentucky Bourbon Festival, which brings together more than 6,000 whiskey lovers from around the world. We’ll hear from several of the master distillers on hand, including Maker’s Mark’s Dr. Blake Layfield and Craig Beam of Jackson Purchase Distillery. In the news, Heaven Hill officially dedicated its $200 million Heaven Hill Springs Distillery in Bardstown on Thursday, marking one of the largest-ever investments in Bourbon production. Suntory’s CEO has resigned in a scandal over supplements, and Ontario Premier Doug Ford is blasting Diageo’s decision to close a Crown Royal bottling plant in his province.
