Episode 213: August 15, 2009

Today marks the birthday of a legend in the bourbon business. Buffalo Trace Master Distiller Emeritus Elmer T. Lee turns 90 today, and his friends marked the milestone with a party at the distillery. I had the chance to interview Elmer in the fall of 2006, and he’ll share some of his stories with us in that interview. In the news, Buffalo Trace unveils this year’s Antique Collection, Chris Morris tells us about this year’s Old Forester Birthday Bourbon, The Whisky Exchange unveils a new line of single cask bottlings, and the Laing Brothers put Macallan and Laphroaig together.
